Enjoy the traditional flavor of early American cooking with stone-ground white cornmeal from George Washington's Gristmill. In 1771, George Washington shifted from tobacco to wheat and constructed a new mill along Dogue Run, exporting his finely milled flour to Europe and the West Indies. In 1791, Washington adopted new milling technology from inventor Oliver Evans, bringing innovation to Mount Vernon’s production. Today, these grains are still stone-ground using water power, preserving the authentic texture and flavor of the 18th century.
