in dried grain form they will keep for at least a year. I always freeze
them for 3 or 4 days right away, to kill anything. then let them sit 24 to 48
hours (depending on humidity) to allow any moisture from freezing to
evaporate. then store in food grade buckets with good tight lids, bakery
buckets are great. I don't use the plastic mylar stuff, i just can't afford it,
but it would help keep them good even longer.

I'm going to start grinding grains for bread and other baking. I'll be
purchasing Sunflower seeds, Flax Seeds, Spelt, wheat, oats, etc. My
question is how long can I store these. It is about a 2 hour drive to my favorite
store in the Shenandoah Valley, so I would like to buy as much as possible.
What would be the best way to store the grains? I have buckets that I got
from Kroger deli. Would these work?
Thanks
