Kernza is a delicious perennial grain that’s a sustainable alternative to annual wheat because it reduces the need for tilling, fertilizer and pesticides, and has deep roots that store carbon. - Meet University of Minnesota researchers in the Summer Kitchen, taste Minnesota-grown Kernza in the Myers Education Center kitchen, play lawn games, take tours with farm guides, and enjoy the Rootstock Pop-up in the Summer Kitchen.
