George Washington's Pancake Flour Book and bread and butter platesEnjoy a taste of early American history with this stone ground pancake flour inspired by George Washingtons innovative farming at George Washington's Gristmill. In 1771, after transitioning from tobacco to wheat, Washington built a new mill along Dogue Run and began exporting his finely milled flour to Europe and the West Indies. By 1791, he embraced cutting edge technology from inventor Oliver Evans, modernizing his mill and improving production.
