This rice has become a staple in so many meals. The taste, is what I love, and so do my guests. Add to that the farming and land management techniques employed, and this is how it is done right!!
Our long grain white rice offers added nutrition to any meal. It’s great tasting, Missouri grown, and anything but ordinary. Grown with Mother Nature in mind, Castor River does not till, burn, FLOOD, omission of fungicides plus insecticides and the use of a cover crop on 100% of our land.
Doing what's right is almost never easy, if it was, then everyone would be doing it.
Since 1954 Castor River has been the dreamer, the risktaker and the doer of all things good for our farm, our community and our planet. Regenerative agriculture
allows our farm to continue this legacy as we grow our crops in concert with nature.
Castor River isn’t simply a brand; it is the realized vision of what is possible when sustainability is the cornerstone of a family farm.
Price excludes tax, shipping and handling.
All orders ship directly from Castor River Habitat & Farm.

Rice tastes amazing. You can taste the quality, not too fluffy, perfect texture and is very clean. Packaging is also amazing using white strings to tie it together with good quality packaging. Definitely way better that Lundberg certified organic and regenerative rice and you can taste and feel the difference. Highly recommend buying this over any other rice brands, knowing it’s comming from a real good soil and quality regenerative farm that doesn’t believe in pesticides.

Hi! This is my third batch of Castor River rice I’ve tried. The first few bags I bought at my local Walmart. It was so good I ordered the next batch directly from you and gobbled it up. In this most recent batch, the first pot tasted so much like soap, I tossed it out, rinsed the pot thoroughly and cooked a second batch. I wondered if it might have been my taste buds, so I went ahead and served it with stewed beef and root veggies over it. So I’m struggling to love it as I had the first and second crop. Is this a thing?

This is the best rice I have ever eaten. The fact that it is grown in my home state of Missouri makes it even more special.

This is the best rice to ever exist. I didn’t even know that I could be a rice snob until tasting this supreme rice. Make it with butter and broth like they recommend. This rice is so good I literally buy bags to gift after bragging about it to friends and family. Beware; you may never enjoy the taste of any other rice, ever again.

I find your rice - Both white and brown - interesting and quite different in flavor and texture from other rice. I use it for all rice dishes I make except for the Arborio rice I use in risotto.

I ordered this rice due to the lower arsenic levels. We love rice but tend to limit out intake because of the arsenic. It’s great to find a local, family-owned rice producer that cares about the land and food. Love the packaging too. Rice is delicious and it’s so easy to cook in the instant pot. Will definitely be buying more.

I’m a supporter of regenerative farming and when this was at my local grocery store, I was so happy! Unfortunately, they haven’t had it in stock lately so I was ecstatic to be able to order it directly from the farm! I love this rice and it cooks beautifully.

This is the best rice I’ve ever had. Got it on clearance at a grocery store and will never buy any other rice again. The flavor is excellent and it cooks perfectly every time and works in any variety of dishes. Amazing.

We have students in our home from many areas of the US and many countries around the world. They eat many different varieties of rice. Your rice is eaten voraciously by all (can’t, of course, make risotto with it but maybe you can work on an Arborio variety)

I stumbled on your rice in my grocery store and loved it. Then my grocery store discontinued it so I found you online. Thank God!!
