Premium, 100% traceable, Canadian-grown Laird Lentils.

Our Laird lentils come from Bob Wallace at Aldor Farms in southwestern Saskatchewan.

Lairds are the stars of the lentil family. First cultivated at the University of Saskatchewan in the late 1970s, the laird lentil kickstarted the Canadian pulse industry we have today. It’s an evolution of a crop first grown more than 20,000 years ago, and now it’s the gold standard of lentils, big and green and packed with essential nutrition.

To cook, rinse 1 part lentils and cover with 3 parts water and bring to a boil. Simmer for 45-60 minutes or until soft. Pre-soaking the lentils in water for 4-6 hours will decrease the cooking time.

Laird Lentils are perfect for salads and soups. 

To keep our products at their best, store in a sealed container in a cool, dark place.

EXCLUSIVELY CANADIAN

Canada is a world leader in grain and bean farming, consistently producing the safest and highest quality crops. But the vast majority of these goods aren’t available to North Americans — most are sold on international markets. Flourist is committed to working exclusively with Canadian family farms to make these amazing products available across North America and to help ensure farming remains a family business in Canada. 

PREMIUM QUALITY

Flourist sources only premium quality grains and beans directly from the farmers who grow them. We bypass the traditional commodity market supply chain, ensuring our products are fresh.

100% TRANSPARENCY

In a category dominated by opaque supply chains and mysterious origins, Flourist connects people with the sources of their food. Every product can be connected to the farmer who grew it.
