🌾🚜 This isn’t just another rice harvest… this rice has a BIG job to do next year. 👀

We’re cutting seed rice — rice that will be carefully harvested, processed, and replanted next year to grow the next crop. 🌱

Most people see a bag of rice on the grocery store shelf and never get to see where it all begins. This is one of the first steps in that story.

Come along with us into the field and see where next year’s rice starts! 🌾

🚜 This is what rush hour looks like when you’re in the rice business. 🌾
Harvest doesn’t wait—and neither does small-town Arkansas.
From the field to the mill, there’s a whole lot of work that goes into getting Della Rice from our farmers to your table.
Harvest season is officially rolling at Specialty Rice! 🌾❤️

🌾 **Celebrating National Rice Month with Arkansas Rice!** 🌾

We’re celebrating the people, the farms, and of course—the FOOD that make National Rice Month so special! 🍚❤️

**2026 Arkansas Rice Rep Waylon Herron** headed to the kitchen to show us how he makes **Shrimp Risotto with Tomatoes & Peas** using just 11 household ingredients. 🍤🍅🫛

Waylon shares an important risotto tip along the way: add your broth or stock a little at a time, allowing the rice to absorb it gradually and develop that rich, creamy texture.

But our favorite part comes at the end:

🌾 **“I’d like to say thank you to Arkansas rice farmers for feeding me.”**

We couldn’t agree more!

During National Rice Month, we’re especially proud to recognize the hardworking Arkansas rice farmers who grow the rice that makes its way from their fields to family tables across Arkansas and beyond.

Thank you, Waylon, for helping us celebrate **Arkansas-grown rice**—one delicious dish at a time! 🍚👏

🌾🍚 Celebrating National Rice Month the delicious way!

2026 Arkansas Rice Rep **Waylon Herron** is in the kitchen making **Shrimp Risotto with Tomatoes & Peas** using just 11 household ingredients. 🍤🍅🫛

His risotto tip? Add your broth a little at a time and let the rice work its magic to create that creamy texture we all love. 👨‍🍳

And the best part of the recipe might just be the message at the end:

**“Thank you to Arkansas rice farmers for feeding me.”** ❤️🌾

From the field to the table, we’re proud to celebrate the farmers who help make Arkansas rice such an important part of meals across the country.
