BAM stands for
Because Agriculture Matters.
It’s hard to innovate in food and beverage when everyone is working with the same ingredients.
BAM developed Organic Buckwheat Milk Powder to improve our own production, then discovered the ingredient’s potential beyond milk. Today, we partner with CPG brands across categories to expand what’s possible with buckwheat, and scale the supply chain behind it.
2021 - INSPIRATION
After learning about almond orchards being pulled from California’s Central Valley due to drought, BAM set out to create a plant-based milk from a crop that could support a more resilient and diverse food system.
2022 - DEVELOPMENT
After hundreds of formulations and iterations, BAM developed a creamy, great-tasting milk from organic buckwheat, an overlooked crop with powerful agricultural potential.
2023 - LAUNCH
America's first Buckwheat Milk hits shelves. BAM launched in SoCal at Erewhon, Jimbo's and Mother's Market, introducing consumers to buckwheat in an entirely new way.
2024 - SCALE
BAM expanded into Whole Foods Market and developed Organic Buckwheat Milk Powder—a shelf-stable, highly soluble ingredient designed to take buckwheat beyond the beverage aisle.
2025 - SPOTLIGHT
BAM appeared on Shark Tank, bringing buckwheat, regenerative agriculture and the opportunity to diversify our food system to millions of viewers.
2026 - EVOLVE
New Barn Organics acquired BAM’s buckwheat milk recipe IP to bring Buckwheat Milk to market nationally. Today, BAM is expanding applications for Organic Buckwheat Milk Powder and growing the Regenerative Organic Certified® buckwheat supply chain.
