About the Brand
Lil Bucks
Lil Bucks, America's buckwheat brand, makes crunchy snacks and toppings out of the underutilized superfood, sprouted buckwheat. The company's mission is to improve American diets and soil health through the love of buckwheat. The products are uniquely crunchy, and are gluten/grain-free, high in protein, fiber, and antioxidants. The buckwheat is sourced sustainably from a trailblazing regenerative farm in Minnesota.
Why we love them
We love Lil Bucks because they understand the need for holistic health for both people and our soil. Buckwheat helps create healthier soil, which creates healthier crops, leading to healthier humans! It acts as a cover crop, which helps suppress weeds, rejuvenate over-farmed soils, and extract phosphorus from the soil, leaving more nutrients for future crops. Plus, it’s rich in heart-healthy antioxidants, prebiotic fiber for gut health, and not to mention, they’re delicious! P.S. Did you know buckwheat is actually a fruit seed, and more related to a strawberry than actual wheat?!
