Beebs I'm in po dunk alaska and my stores carry the bobs red mill. it's usually not in the isle with your regular flours.
and all of the bobs red mill comes in bags that you can see through if that makes since.

one stores here have them in the oriental section one in the cereal section and the other in the baking section.

Hope this helps

I'd love for you to be able to find it.

Beebs did you get a food processor ? I wonder if you could use a blender to chop it up. Just do a little at a time ....
