Burlington Plant To Produce Healthy Food Alternatives

A 2 point 6 million dollar grain cleaning, milling and packaging plant is in the plans for Burlington.

Harvest Specialty Mills says the plant will offer grains, pulses and dried fruits to customers of all sizes.

The company is working with Shopify to develop an online ordering system.

In announcing it's plans for the Burlington facility, Harvest Specialty Mills says ancient grains such as flax, chia and quinoa have become staple ingredients for the modern healthy family.

The proposed Burlington plant is apparently part of the company's efforts to tap into the rapidly growing marketplace for healthy food alternatives.
