Common Grain Alliance connects and supports grain farmers, processors (millers and maltsters) and grain artisans (bakers, brewers, distillers, etc.). to build a vibrant, integrated, equitable and regenerative grain economy in the Mid-Atlantic. We are a membership-driven organization and welcome professionals, home bakers, farmers, gardeners, cooks, educators, or anyone interested in helping us fulfill our mission.

When I started [Seylou Bakery + Mill] in 2017, I had a hard time finding people. If I were just plugging into the Common Grain Alliance in 2022, it would be so easy. We have shared interests and shared goals.
