Although inhabiting a very broad elevational gradient, slender wheatgrass is ecologically very confined to disturbed settings (the large "oat grass" glumes are characteristic of slender wheatgrass).
Mighty Greens contains the two most nutrient-dense leafy veggies known to mankind, #wheatgrass and #alfalfa, along with #hemp #protein and stevia for a wonderful flavor just the way it is or added to #greenjuice or #smoothies.
Pines' #MightyGreens contains the ONLY Non-GMO Project Verified Alfalfa current available anywhere!
NOTE: The Mighty Greens brand was registered as a trademark nearly 20 years ago by Pines, the original green superfood company. Recently, another company is apparently mixing our powder with water and some not-too-nutritious vegetable juices and is selling it in a plastic bottle at much higher price per serving. Although we appreciate their promoting our brand, they do not have our permission and are in violation of US Federal trademark law.

The dried wheatgrass ends up in this room where it is made into a powder, then compressed into pellets and then put into pharmaceutical bags for storage at below freezing temperatures.
Grown to the right height for making wheatgrass juice; ready to be harvested. More info at ligiapop.com

Crisp, 2940 Broadway, Chicago. Korean Barbecue...excellent fish sandwich but it was too crowded that day
A local produce market with fresh hot bread & buns and a not so common Wheat Grass drink... though I tried it, it's something I would not try again.
Spikelets have their broad side against the stem and are 11-30 mm long, 3-15-flowered and unawned. Glumes are placed side by side.
Probably, Slender wheatgrass (Elymus trachycaulus syn. Agropyron trachycaulum), Grass family (Poaceae).

Some of my wheatgrass, grown entirely hydroponicly. No medium was used, only mesh baskets and nutrient.
We grow our own wheatgrass, and juice it. This superfood is rich in vitamins and minerals and enzymes, but most importantly it is full of chlorophyll. The structure of hemoglobin and chlorophyll are virtually identical, the difference being instead of a magnesium core, we have an iron core. What's even more surprising is that we believe the body can convert from one to the other. Science disagrees however, but I think this little trick defies our understanding. Anyway, we believe in the detox and benefits of wheatgrass juice.
My friend and I also went to a Chipotle-sponsored event called Cultivate, also in Lincoln Park. www.chipotle.com/en-US/html/cultivate.html
There was food, beer, live music, live cooking, and merchandise. It was a really cool, informative event - money well spent by the sponor.
Western wheatgrass is one of the most common native grasses in steppe vegetation of Montana and apparently thrives in overstocked areas. A spreading rhizomatous growth habit, leaves and stems that are usually bluegreen, and glumes that narrowly attenuate into a sharp curved tip are distinctions of this native grass species. This site lies long the trail at the north end of Burke Park, Bozeman, Montana.
This tastes as grassgreen as it looks, but with some lemon and ginger it's quite refreshing. Get the recipe here: trulyjuly.wordpress.com/2017/07/27/recipe-wheatgrass-smoo....
Soil profile: A representative soil profile of the Ola series.
Landscape: Ola soils are on pediments, hills, and mountains. Slopes are 6 to 80 percent. Natural vegetation is commonly Idaho fescue, bluebunch wheatgrass, antelope bitterbrush, and mountain big sagebrush with widely scattered ponderosa pine.
The Ola series consists of moderately deep, well drained soils that formed in colluvium and residuum derived from intrusive igneous and metamorphic rocks. The mean annual precipitation is about 460 mm and the mean annual temperature is about 6 degrees C.
TAXONOMIC CLASS: Coarse-loamy, mixed, superactive, frigid Pachic Haploxerolls
Soil moisture: Usually moist, moist in winter and spring, dry in late summer and fall; xeric soil moisture regime.
Soil temperature: 6 to 8 degrees C.
Depth to bedrock: 50 to 100 cm to a paralithic (or lithic) contact.
Reaction: Slightly acid or neutral.
Other features: The mollic epipedon commonly extends to the bedrock contact.
Particle-size control section - Rock fragments: Lithology of fragments is intrusive igneous (plutonic) rocks such as granite and metamorphic rocks such as quartzite.
USE AND VEGETATION: Ola soils are used primarily for rangeland and wildlife habitat. Dominant natural vegetation is Idaho fescue, bluebunch wheatgrass, antelope bitterbrush, and mountain big sagebrush with widely scattered ponderosa pine.
DISTRIBUTION AND EXTENT: Southwestern and south-central Idaho and areas in northern Nevada. These soils are moderately extensive. MLRAs 10, 11, 23, and 25.

A native grass on the edge of the dune vegetation next to the beach but greatly outnumbered by Ammophila arenaria (marram grass). This species is very similar to intermediate wheatgrass (Agropyron intermedium). The tough-textured rigid glumes have a notched or asymmetric tip just like those of Agropyron intermedium.
Bluebunch wheatgrass growing during August 2021 or the year after the September 2020 fire at the south end of the Bridger Range, Gallatin County, Montana. The few flowering spikes had already dispersed mature florets by late August. The loosely bunched growth habit and all leaf blades born from the stem are diagnostic of bluebunch wheatgrass. Bluebunch wheatgrass is abundant in the open understory of the dry limestone slopes from the College M up to the lookout along the trail to Baldy Mountain.
Bluebunch wheatgrass is doing well along the Highland Glen trail. This area has been regularly sprayed over the last four years or so to promote more grass growth, although noxious weeds is the likely stated reason. At least the native grasses are doing okay. Note leaves are all born from the stems and not as a basal bunch.
