You'll enjoy it, Annette. Interestingly, they are located not to far from Arkansas, which is the nation's top rice producing state, and even closer to Missouri's "Bootheel," which is that state's rice-growing region. Just shows how long Illinois really is.

Rice is hardly grown anymore in South Carolina, which was a massive 18th century supplier to Europe, so you can imagine how astonishing I find Illinois rice! I've ordered a couple of bags from Cahokia-- one of brown , one of white. Looking forward!
