Tidewater Grain Company

It all started with a bunch of ducks Tidewater Grain Company was born from a love of the outdoors and fellowship around the table.  
We are North Carolina family farmers, honored to have reintroduced rice farming and production to eastern North Carolina. We stand as proud stewards of an heirloom crop absent from North Carolina Agriculture for more than 125 years. 

We planted our first crop in 2018. Today, we touch every part of the process — from planting to harvest, from milling and packaging, to shipping to both wholesale and retail customers. And, we love sharing the story and educating consumers about all the heirloom grains we grow.  The rest continues to develop day by day, harvest by harvest. 

And, yes, we’re still crazy about ducks. — Al & Tommy, Founders
