Root Shoot Malting is deeply grounded and invested in Northern Colorado. Todd and Steve Olander, owners of Olander Farms, cultivated Root Shoot Malting to specialize in the highest quality of local grain and craft malt available to the brewing and distilling industries. As 5th generation farmers in Loveland, Colorado, we respect the heritage of our region’s agriculture. As partners in the beer industry, we value the high standards of being in one of America’s most esteemed locations for craft beer. Pride and family values are an essential part of the process at Root Shoot Malting. We take what we learned from the farmers before us, use today’s most innovative agricultural equipment, while making the least impact on our earth to keep the land healthy for the next generation of Root Shoot farmers. Root Shoot Malting is in the unique position to control the entire malting process from seed variety and growth, to harvest and final kilning. We give Colorado breweries and distilleries the ability to procure local, consistent and high quality craft products.
