If you’ve ever wondered where to get the best that the area has to offer, you can find a few in this month’s Rhode Island Monthly. There’s plenty to choose from like Gray’s Grist Mill in Westport, Mass.
“This mill is the oldest continuous mill in the country. It’s still going on after 365 years I guess,” said miller, Thornton Simmons.
Their product can be used to make Johnny cakes, Indian pudding, biscuits, and granola bars. The corn is indigenous to the area and grown in Exeter. Simmons then packages the meal and sells to local markets and restaurants.
