Because we grew, harvested, threshed, winnowed, ground, sifted, kneaded and baked it, all here in our apartment in Ramat Beit Shemesh. The challah had a perfect smooth texture with a fresh nutty flavor – L’Kavod Shabbos Kodesh!
Want to learn how anyone can grow wheat on their yard and balconey in Israel – even 6-year-olds?

24 hours until Yedidya Chapter 8!
so cool to see the entire process of growing wheat and turning it to challah!
This is really cool!
Awesome!!
Wow, so cool! What a wonderful experience for your family, too. Are you going to do it again? And how did it taste?
It tasted like good challah but very fresh and a bit nutty.
I want do this again but that would mean getting hold of some wheat stalks. These are not easy to buy at the local supermarket, but I don’t want to let that deter me!
We are definitely planning to grow more in our yard next winter IYH.
