Hand-crafted in New York, each RealStraw is a limited edition, high quality grain stem. Did you know that wheat and rye stems are gluten free, as the gluten is concentrated in the seed head? Perfect for small-batch spirits and craft cocktails. Show your guests that you care about what goes in their drinks.

A short history of drink straws.
Thousands of years ago, people started using wheat and rye stems to sip their favorite beverages. About a hundred and forty years ago, paper straws were invented. After that, plastic straws took over. Then a sea turtle got hurt.
Time to get rid of plastic straws. Let's get back to nature with all-natural RealStraw drink straws and stir sticks.
Life of a sea turtle... I was just swimming along and then...BOOM! OW!
The BIG RIG!
My 1952 Ford 8N tractor pulls my 1940's era McCormick Deering reaper binder.
The greatest generation designed equipment that still runs eighty years later.
GOD BLESS FARMERS!
Every single one I met on this journey was incredibly hard working and helpful.
