Wheat and oats both grow in the same climate and the plants are almost the same height. Many farmers grow wheat and oats in the same fields in different years. Usually, some of the wheat kernels fall on the ground and sprout the next year.

Gluten Free Oats states that their products are safe for people who are gluten intolerant because they are carefully grown, harvested, and processed to avoid cross-contamination from wheat, rye or barley. The fields are used only for oats (or other gluten-free grains) and the harvesting machines are inspected by the Wyoming Seed Certification Service to assure they are free of gluten-containing grains. In addition, the products are tested by the University of Nebraska FARRP Laboratory to assure that they contain less than 0.001% gluten.
