In February, 2008, Creekside Grains was born in Traverse City, Michigan.

Michael invented the mixes. He is the "Flavor Engineer."​

Loretta was "Director of Taste Testing" and "President of Packaging." She created the labels for the boxes.

 

​Michael met Maureen when she commented on his Merry CHRISTmas button. He asked if she would like to work for them, and Maureen became their favorite employee. Michael and Loretta were very sad to see Maureen move to Wisconsin, but they knew that it was God's plan for her life, to attend Bible College, then meet her future husband Sam.

​

After seventeen years, it was time to close Creekside Grains. Out of nowhere (it was all God) a few weeks before they were going to close, Michael said, "Let's call Maureen and see if she would like to buy Creekside Grains." Yes!

​

Creekside Grains has now moved to Wisconsin, with a brand new commercial kitchen and a great family to run the company. The recipes are the same and will still be created and packed in small quantities to insure the great flavors and freshness that our customers have come to love.

Who's Who at Creekside Grains:

 

Sam is "The New Owner."

 

Maureen is "The Lead Packager/Quality Control, The Queen."

​

They have three great children. Two are "The Judges on Taste Testing!" One is "Cookie Monster!"

Our products have a shelf life of one year.

With the exception of a small amount of fake stuff in the Root Beer extract, Creekside Grains mixes contain no artificial coloring, preservatives or any other ingredients that you cannot pronounce.

Someone asked why we do not put the nutritional information on the mixes. We used to have them on the mixes, but an FDA official made us take them off. We have to sell 10,000 of one mix before we can put them back on the labels again.
