Located in the quaint and charming community of Wilsonville, Alabama, McEwen & Sons represents the best of what Southern living and lifestyle has to offer. Our traditional stone burr grist mill was purchased first as an attempt to embrace and promote a healthier lifestyle and living, for us and our customers. We operate out of Coosa Valley Milling and have earned a reputation for care and attention to detail, nationally. We now mill some of the most delicious cornmeal, grits and polenta products available in the United States.

Our products are bagged and sealed with love and shipped from coast to coast to offer you the finest quality milled products, no matter where you are! We hear you! We are available at the Pepper Place Farmers Market every other Saturday (for over 10 years!) Our products can also be found at select Alabama Goods, Whole Foods, Snapper Grabbers, The Fish Market, Piggly Wiggly, Western Supermarket, Durbin Farms, and more!

We agree!

Our stone ground grits are a non-negotiable when it comes to shrimp and grits. Check out the link in our bio for our favorite recipe for Shrimp and Blue Grits with a Bacon Vinaigrette 🍴🌽🍤

We are deeply honored that Ruth Reichl recently featured McEwen & Sons in her newsletter, La Briffe.

Her discovery of our grits came through a Southern-food chain we are especially proud of: chef Robert Stehling’s search for proper grits, Garden & Gun's guide, and the longtime support of Birmingham chef Frank Stitt.

Ruth called our stone-burr-ground grits “the real deal,” and also gave a kind nod to our cornmeal. For a small family mill in Wilsonville, Alabama, that means a great deal.
