Most "shrub steppe" is dominated by sagebrush. However, in the Columbia Basin of eastern Washington, bitterbrush (Purshia tridentata) can also be a dominant (near background), especially near lower treeline along the eastern base of the Cascade Mountains. The dominant grass here is bluebunch wheatgreass (Pseudoroegeneria spicata)
In 1976 and 1977, more than 200 people, mostly from Kansas, invested an average of $200 each in a little company that was determined to provide an economical and convenient means to increase the amount of dark green, leafy vegetables and fiber in modern diets.
Eriogonum umbellatum Torr. var. umbellatum. Growing with Western wheatgrass. This hillside is being invaded by a number of weeds including Secale cereale (Cereal rye). After several yeas of weeding out the Secale, the buckwheat has thrived and the native Western wheatgrass is returning.

Wheat grass and hand juicer
Vegetation with a recent history of fire is manifested by a scarcity of Wyoming big sagebrush on and immediately around East Butte. Regardless, high native cover of bunchgrasses and herbs (forbs) remain.
The most common rhizomatous wheatgrass in the northern range of Yellowstone National Park, thickspike wheatgrass abounds in the mountain big sagebrush steppe whereas western wheatgrass, Agropyron smithii, is seldom if at all encountered. The rhizomatous growth habit, hair lemmas, and glumes generally shorter than the lemmas are traits distinctive of thickspike wheatgrass.
Habit and habitat view of the long-awned form of slender wheatgrass (lemma anws 10-40 mm long), a native bunchgrass common right along the JMT trails at montane and subalpine zones. This view is looking downstream along Lyell Canyon. Meadow barley is common in the foreground along with scattered stems of nodding brome.
The root system on the wheatgrass retains the shape of the sprouting tray. Pretty good root growth for around two weeks, hey?
After feeding Metoo of this stuff, us humans drink the grassy stuff with some OJ added in and placed in the blender. Wheatgrass really likes to foam, giving the drinker a green Moustache ;-D
Wyoming sagebrush-Bluebunch wheatgrass (Artemisia tridentata wyomingensis-Pseudoroegeneria spicata) plant community. This is one of the highest quality examples of this plant community in Washington and as such was protected by the Washington Department of Natural Resources as the Two Steppe Natural Area Preserve.
The outer seal shrinks around the cap in such a way that it is impossible to open the bottle without breaking the seal. This ensures your bottle has not been opened since it was packaged at Pines. You will not find a paper seal inside the bottle. Instead, you will see a specially designed gasket around the inside of the cap. That gasket with a glass bottle is the only way an oxygen-free atmosphere can be sealed inside a bottle. If a product is not packed in a glass bottle with this kind of seal in a metal, it does not contain an oxygen-free atmosphere.
Native plant cover is close to 100% in and around Middle Butte. Most of the same plants that dominate the area of Middle Butte also dominate the vegetation around East Butte, excepting of course juniper and big sagebrush.

Only Pines Wheat Grass is grown at the location for foundational research. Only Pines Wheat Grass is harvested, dried, tableted and packaged at that same location in the world-famous alluvial soils of Northeast Kansas. Only Pines Wheat Grass is produced with the same farming, harvesting and drying procedures that were used in the original research.
Close-up of the long-awned form of slender wheatgrass (lemma anws 10-40 mm long) having spikelets with a somewhat secund arrangement. This native bunchgrass is common along the JMT at montane and subalpine zones especially along the trail where disturbance is more frequent.
Spikelets are 16–35 mm long and 4–10-flowered. Glumes subequal. Lemmas 6.9–12.5 mm long, glabrous or scabrous, mucronate, muticous or with an awn remaining straight when dry; lowest lemma muticous , mucronate or with an awn 0–3 mm long, remaining lemmas with awn 0–11.5 mm long.
Ingredients vary most days from celery, apples, pears, kale, wheatgrass, carrots, cucumber, broccoli, parsley and any other leafy greens
There are so many wheatgrass brands out there, so how to do you know which to choose? See why #PinesWheatGrass is healthier, more nutritious and environmentally sustainable.

Noxious weed Euphorbia myrsinites surrounds probably and grows over other vegetation. The tall grass in the middle is also an exotic, Thinopyrum ponticum or Tall wheatgrass (syn. Elymus elongatus,Agopryon elongatum and others). Smaller green grass to far left is Festuca saximontana that is locally native but is probably not a local genotype. So this has become a living biological dumping ground.

my girlfriend Dona's new puppy
I have been growing wheat grass and they make the most beautiful spring displays. I used copper wire to hold the photo up. Just create a spiral on one end and slip the photo in. I have a bunch of these all over the house ... such joy.
happy spring day to you
After the bottles go through the cap tightener, the oxygen-free environment is sealed inside the bottle so that the wheatgrass will remain as fresh. By keeping the wheatgrass in freezing temperatures until ready for bottling and by using nitrogen packing, the product you receive is as fresh as the day it was harvested. You can help to keep your Pines Wheat Grass fresh after you open the bottle by keeping it in the refrigerator, but most people use a bottle within a month. As long as you tighten the special lid after every use, no significant loss of nutrients will occur without refrigeration. The major reason for nitrogen protection is the long periods that a product can spend in a warehouse or on a store shelf before you receive it. If a product sits in a plastic bottle for a months without protection, nutrient loss can be quite significant.
@stephanieannbarber took me for breakfast and then we juiced. My 1200 calorie breakfast followed by a shot of wheatgrass and some beat juice concoction from community (that tasted like borscht)
Western wheatgrass intermingles with thickspike wheatgrass (Agropyron dasystachyum) along the sides of the crop fields. Western wheatgrass tends to be glaucous (bluegree) whereas thickspike wheatgrass tends to be more bright green. This local difference is not absolute even at this site.
