Somerset Organic Spelt - Air miles and Price

I have just been at the Health food shop and come across this fantastic organic Spelt flour:
it is one of the oldest cereals known to man, therefore not modified as its modern wheat descendants
it is easier to digest, suitable for people with wheat intolerance
it has higher protein content and it is rich in Riboflavin (vitamin B2) and Niacin (vitamin B3)
The spelt is grown in Sharpham Park near Glastonbury and it is milled in Wookey, less than 10 miles away. This is such a good example of sustainable food! The downside? £ 3.80 for 1.5 Kg
Any opinions welcome!
