Greetings of Gratitude from the Grain Market!

The most exciting news from The Grain Market is that our cooking classes are starting up. Thank you for being so patient. We now have water and are ready to go.

We have been teaching classes for over ten years through various venues. Each class has provided us with opportunities to share our passion of simple, wholesome cooking. We not only teach but also provide the tools necessary to make it easy and affordable to create healthier alternatives for everyday meals. We are thrilled to be teaching now at The Grain Market. Check online for class descriptions. Class registration is required.

  • Demos on Saturday - FREE!
  • Brown-Bag Lunch and Learn Series on Wednesday - Bring your lunch and learn! You will be amazed at what we accomplish in 40 minutes. Class starts promptly at 12:10 and ends at 12:50!
  • TGM Cooking Class Series - Classes range from The Grain Market's wildly successful cooking classes to Chef Richard Taylor's Jamaican cooking and Peppermint Jim Crosby's cooking with the Magic and Power of Mint! We are also teaching Gluten Free classes.
Exciting Market UPDATES:

A special thanks to the National Association of Career Women (NACW). Yes, we enjoyed an evening with over 50 amazing women. We laughed, learned, and tasted the night away. A special thanks to Jan Pfeiffer with the Greater Lansing Michigan Convention & Visitors Bureau for organizing the evening.


We had our first "Lunch and Learn" demo recently. One of our Market friends invited her colleagues to experience the magic of the new City Market on the beautiful Grand River. They had lunch, a demo at The Grain Market, and also held a business meeting. At the demo we featured our Grain-to-Griddle Pancakes. You see Travis busy at work skillfully flipping his pancakes which were enjoyed by all. You can enjoy them too at http://www.thegrainmarket.com/recipes.php?cid=1&rid=1
 


We just returned from the International Chicago Home and Housewares Tradeshow on March 16th (my birthday!). We had a wonderful time meeting with our vendors. One of the many pleasures included learning from expert Chef Lacey Berry with Bosch from Utah. We enjoyed her no-nonsense approach to the kitchen. She taught us some amazing tricks about the Bosch that we are anxious to share with you. Be prepared to experience truly fabulous cupcakes and cinnamon chip bread as well as Lacey's Sweet Pork cooked to perfection in the pressure cooker.
 
For those of you that have purchased our pressure cookers, we have silicone steaming baskets that fit perfectly in your cookers. You will love them. The Trudeau steaming basket is our product of the month and a must for only $12.95.

We also found many wonderful tools at the tradeshow for the kitchen that simply make life easier.

Remember we offer gift certificates at The Grain Market for our cooking classes, grains, and appliances. An ideal gift for many... the newlyweds, graduates going off to school for the first time, young families struggling to find ways to eat better in less time and for less money, and for those that simply don't want to take time to cook. We make it quick and easy.

More grains on the way - we have gone through six pallets of grain - three pallets since January 9th. Wow! Thank you to all that are enjoying the quality and pricing of our organic grains. We sincerely appreciate you.

Eat Healthy - Be Healthy,

Travis and Scarlett Sybrowsky
