About Us
When I was in my early 20s, working in management for Prairie Hybrids, the biotechnology industry hit our seed company hard with the concept of joining our genetic supplier by providing genetically modified seed. Thankfully, my grandfather – and Prairie Hybrids founder – decided we would continue providing non-genetically modified (non-GMO) seed.
On the short-term, this decision resulted in losing quite a few customers, which led me to question the wisdom of my grandfather’s decision. I reached out to a seed advisor and verified the only way we would survive as a family-owned seed company was to stay all non-GMO. He forecasted many seed companies that signed the GMO license would go out of business, which turned out to be true. Today, we enjoy the many benefits of that decision my grandfather made years ago.
Once I heard the testimonies from countless customers using our non-GMO corn for their livestock operations, and saw the difference when eating non-GMO food, I decided I wanted to be a part of feeding America with healthy food.
Suffering with poor health throughout my teen years gave me a passion for helping others, by making healthy food choices readily available to everyone. Thus, Prairie Choice Grains and its Chicken Feed division in Colorado were born. Prairie Choice Grains is the only dry corn mill in America that processes food-grade, whole corn and corn grits products using only organic and non-GMO corn. We also offer toll milling and transloading for non-GMO and organic corn products.
We look forward to being your supplier of high-quality, nutritional products. Together, we help our communities lead healthier, happier lifestyles.
Sincerely,
Gilbert Hostetler
