PASTURES
by Jeffrey Brams

The Southern Paiute Indians’ history along the river banks
of the Great Basin dates back to 1100 A.D. They were farmers
and innovators who cultivated crops in a region receiving less than
15 inches of annual rainfall by developing complicated irrigation
canals along those river banks.
Fast forward approximately 900 years and meet Eland and Olivia
LeBaron, who own and operate our organic grass farm in this
fertile valley.
Like the ancestors of that region, Eland, too, is an innovator.
In fact, he developed a unique technology for drying liquids
into a powder—preserving the brightest, freshest appearance,
aroma and flavor of whatever was juiced, while allowing
enzymes and probiotics resident in food to stay alive, adding
to the nutritional value.
It was an ingenious invention that worked beautifully!
Eland, whose family roots and own family now reside
in Utah—in an area globally known for its high-quality

cereal grasses—has since made his
technology scalable and turned his focus
primarily to drying grass juices. In fact,
he became an organic farmer to grow
organic grasses to help preserve this
rich farmland and to ensure that the
drying of grass juices is pristine from
start to finish.
Eland is passionate about this, too,
saying, “I like to tinker—in the fields
and in the lab. I want to know that every crop I grow on my farm
is the best—the most nutritiously dense, the best tasting, the
highest chlorophyll content and magnesium content—the healthiest
grass juices in the world. I test every single harvest of my crops for
these vital nutrients. That’s what gets me going!”
That’s why Eland doesn’t sell whole leaf grasses. “It’s just not
what we do. We started this business with our drying operation.
When you juice, you condense the nutrition—whatever
