FARRO NOT FERRO

In Scotland we met a most gracious hotelier who was also a very fine chef – Gino from Italy.

But when we mentioned that we were raising Farro grains in America, a strange look came over Gino’s face. That had us worried.

The next time we spoke with Gino, we asked him outright: Why the strange look when we mention Farro grains?

Well, he said, Ferro in Italian means iron.

Ever since, we pronounce Farro with the ‘a’ as in are.
