Description
This family operation began more than 50 years ago when the Martins settled on 160 acres in the Missouri bootheel, and with their four children, cleared the land using mules. Now, three generations later, the same family farms over 4,000 acres of prime rice-growing land. In January 2000, the family constructed a rice processing facility to add value to a crop grown on the farm for over 25 years. With a dedication to quality, the Martins produce rice under the strictest of guidlines offered by the USDA and the EPA. Long grain rice is versatile in its uses and complements most recipes and meals. Most cookbooks refer to this variety when a recipe calls for long grain rice. Cooked grains are separate, light, and fluffy. It is used in most types of American and Chinese dishes, and can be served in stuffings, pilafs, casseroles, stir fry, salads, soups, or as a side dish. This product consists of long, polished kernels and is a healthy source of folic acid, iron, niacin, and thiamine. It naturally has no fat, cholesterol, or sodium. Rice homegrown and milled by Martin Rice Company is shipped worldwide and is available in various sizes for both wholesale and retail sales so that you can buy rice by the pound or by the truck full, direct from the farm.
