Join us at the Brown County Central Library for a four-part series of educational presentations called “The Whole Wheat Story in Four Courses”.
The cultivation and domestication of wild wheat family grasses (wheat, barley, rye, oats) allowed humans to shift from nomadic lifestyles to sedentary, complex societies and develop a suite of crops that is now one of the world's most critical staple crops, providing ~20% of global calories and 35% of global plant protein.
Join biologist Vicki Medland on June 9th at 6:00pm for this incredible journey where we will review the newest archeological evidence and track the ancient origins of wheat. View it live at the Brown County Central Library or join virtually via Zoom after you sign up.
