Although seldom encountered in the natural vegetation of this region, western wheatgrass was locally common along roadsides, indicating its abundance in this region was due to roadside plantings rather than naturally occurring. For example, western wheatgrass was not found in the sagebrush steppe and other grassy vegetation in the Nine Mile Prairie area. The long glumes (as long or longer than adjacent lemma) with narrowly attenuating sharp tips, which give the entire spike a very rigid feel, are diagnostic of western wheatgrass and very different from the shorter less rigid glumes of thickspike wheatgrass.

The lighter Crested Wheatgrass in the foreground gives way to the darker native grasses planted after the Mooney Coulee Prescribed Fire, part of the Bureau of Land Management Glasgow Field Office’s Crested Wheatgrass Conversion project. The Crested Wheatgrass Conversion project was initiated to improve sites in Greater Sage-Grouse Priority Habitat Management Areas not used by sage-grouse due to poor habitat quality.

In addition to Laura's @happygoddess0428 Instagram messages about love, peace and nature are others like this one that emphasize eating plenty of dark green leafy vegetables. Pines' #WheatGrass powder can be mixed with water, juice or a #smoothie for green nutrition and essential #vegetable fiber. Laura also uses tablets as a convenient alternative.
Nine out of 10 people do not eat enough #wholefood greens. #PinesWheatGrass, #MightyGreens and our other #greensuperfoods are convenient and economical ways to increase whole food vegetable nutrition in diets. As the original green superfood 40 years ago, Pines is still correctly grown and packaged properly in oxygen-free glass bottles. Pines is much more #vibrant than #greens in plastic containers and paper packets that copy our message but not our quality standards. A rounded teaspoon of Pines' powder or seven tablets or capsules equal a serving of a dark green vegetable.
Unlike juices or juice powders that quickly pass through the digestive tract, Pines whole food greens are #prebiotic because they still contain important vegetable #fiber! The medical community now recognizes that a reliance on juices rather than whole foods is not a good thing.
Our digestive tracts require whole food dark green roughage. Pines greens are gently dried and milled to a fine powder so they thoroughly digest. The fiber expands 12 times in liquids. That provides the perfect environment for #probiotic bacteria, which are essential for the proper nutritional assimilation.
Dr. Eric Martens, a professor of microbiology and immunology at the University of Michigan recently presented research showing that without adequate fiber in food, organisms eat away at the protective mucosal layer of the gut wall.
When people start using Pines, they often report an improvement in bowel function. That is not surprising since all primates, including humans, are designed for a diet rich in green whole food roughage. All Pines products are certified #organic, #NonGMOProject verified, #kosher, #glutenfree, #vegan and #raw.

Here's an allergy season recipe from CK Hall at @defininghealth. It can help with allergies and also provides more of the green nutrition lacking in 90% of American diets.
#Smoothie for allergy season. Local raw bee pollen saves me through this time of year in both my daily protein shakes!
1 pkt ISALEAN rich chocolate gluten-free dairy-free NO SOY, whole food complete meal protein
1-1/4 tsp organic wheatgrass from @wheatgrass_people
1 cup unsweetened flax milk
1/3 cup frozen organic strawberries
1 tsp local organic bee pollen
1 T organic peanut flour
#dairyfree #glutenfree #defininghealth
For more info, check out my biolink 😃
CK believes it is just as easy to mix your own carefully selected ingredients as it is to buy an already-mixed blend. That is especially true with respect to #allergies because the bee pollen in such blends is not likely local #pollen. Local pollen works best because it contains the kinds of pollen that may be causing your allergies. Often ingesting local pollen can alleviate allergies caused by breathing local pollen.
CK avoids using complex blends of superfood powders in her recipes. She wants to examine each ingredient for aroma and color as well as taste. With a blend, you cannot do that.
#PinesWheatGrass is the original green superfood. Established in 1976, our products predate most other green superfoods by at least 20 years. We are the only grower of whole food greens in Kansas that doesn’t practice “dual farming." That's a practice in which a farmer produces both organic and non-organic crops. Everything we produce is 100% #CertifiedOrganic, #NonGMOProject Verified and #Kosher certified. Our fields are a short distance from where we package and ship our products.
We are also the only #greensuperfood company to package in oxygen-free amber glass bottles. Our bottles are earth-friendly and also prevent the loss of nutrition that occurs with superfoods packaged in petrochemical plastic containers.

The large "oatgrass" glumes (enfolding or mostly so all the florets inside a single spikelet) are diagnostic of slender wheatgrass.
By late summer, the lemma awns recurved in a distinctive manner. Bluebunch wheatgrass forms robust loose bunches. This site lies along the trails leading to the College M, south end of the Bridger Range, Gallatin County, Montana.
Elymus elymoides predominates in post-fire vegetation in a relatively small area where the fire history is unrecorded. Contrary to conventional thought, Bromus tectorum is not the only grass to increase in abundance in post-fire sagebrush steppe. [RD25-09 off of T3 east of T17.]

An Agropyron cristatum green strip along Lincoln Blvd has been colonized by the sagebrush steppe forbs, grasses, and shrubs. A new Agropyron cristatum green strip cuts through the old Agropyron cristatum green strip, representing a recent revegetation effort. This site lies along Lincoln Blvd just north of the main southern entrance, Idaho National Laboratory, Butte County, Idaho.

Courtney Herzog chose to participate in the North Stillwater County Pasture Monoculture Diversification Targeted Implementation Plan, developed by the NRCS field office in Columbus based on local priorities. The purpose of the TIP is to renovate the monoculture pastures to a diverse mix of plants that allows for different season of use on these pastures. This option facilitates a grazing plan with more management options that helps to improve the health of native rangeland units. Herzog Farm, Stillwater County, MT. July 2021

Native, cool-season, perennial, loosely tufted, short-lived grass to 100 cm tall. Leaves typically have a half twist and the flag leaf sticks out at a right angle. Leaf sheaths are hairy and auricles are present. Flowerheads are spikes to 25 cm long. Spikelets are 6-12-flowered and not or little overlapping; their sides are against the stem. Lemmas have an awn which is 9-47 mm long and strongly curved when mature. Calluses are distinctly hairy. Flowers from late winter to late summer. A minor component in pastures, it grows on most soil types and is drought and frost tolerant. Native biodiversity. A variable species; plants on good soils produce high quality, palatable green feed in the cooler months, but plants on shallower soils tend to have harsher leaves and produce little feed. Generally only a short lived plant, but can recruit well from seed. Responds positively to fertiliser. Often preferentially grazed, but is avoided after it runs to head. Rotationally graze or provide strategic rests in late spring to aid persistence.
Agropyron cristatum, crested wheatgrass, is established over large contiguous patches and sometimes far away from roads. This site is over a mile east of Lincoln Blvd and just south of the main north entrance to the Idaho National Laboratory, Butte County, Idaho.
Borough Market, Soutwark. Ask for wheatgrass and the stallholder cuts a hank of it with scissors and then juices it fresh for you.
The diversity of forbs in this low sagebrush dominated community is the same as that in the lower flatter Wyoming big sagebrush dominated vegetation. The blue flowered Penstemon cyananthus subglaber is to the extreme left. The abundant grasses are Agropyron spicatum and Elymus ambiguus.
My friend Mary had me try my very first wheatgrass shot!
Not surprisingly, it tasted just like I was eating grass. Yum =/.
The main highways in the Upper Snake River plains, including within the Idaho National Laboratory, are lined with crested wheatgrass green strips, such as here along Lincoln Blvd, about midway between the main north and south entrances, Butte County, Idaho. Undisturbed sagebrush steppe sits a couple of hundred meters away in the background. A mix of green strip and sagebrush steppe in-between suggests that sagebrush steppe can advance into the green strip in these setting where humans have little impact (e.g., no livestock grazing occurs in much of the lands administered by the Idaho National Laboratory. For example, native shrubs such as Artemisia tridentata, Chysothamnus viscidiflorus, and Grayia spinosa are common throughout the green strip but crested wheatgrass bunches are lacking from the adjacent sagebrush steppe.
This rhizomatous grass is one of the few species occupying a small area where sheep were grazed ostensibly to reduce the abundance of certain invasive plant species (but exotic plant cover remains very high).
Pets love Hydroponics. My cat likes to sleep next to the plants. I also grow catnip and wheatgrass for them.

The sagebrush steppe in this study site has a diversity of shrub, herb (forb), and grass species, suggesting no recent history of overstocking. Thickspike wheatgrass (Agropyron dasystachyum) is the most dominant grass between the shrubs.

Agropyron dasystachyum is somewhat common along the shallow sandy margins of the Saint Anthony sand dunes, Fremont County, Idaho. The broad multi-veined glumes and moderately hairy lemmas are distinctive of thickspike wheatgrass. The wheatgrass auricles are somewhat conspicuous in this species.

The days immediately before the 15 July 2010 Jefferson fire, the sagebrush steppe of the Idaho National Laboratory was still green and lush given that 2010 was a relatively wet and cool year. Here, basin wildrye stands tall among a large stand of squirreltail, Elymus elymoides. This site lies north of Middle Butte (background) and north of highway 20, Bingham County, Idaho (near the Butte County line).
