Whatever happened to Miracle Wheat?


Henry Weber was a vice-president of the Watch Tower Society who died in 1904. He ran a large horticultural company which his heirs continued with after his death. The business of H Weber and Sons continued operation until 1978.

According to the New Era Enterprise newspaper from October 20, 1920, this is where some of the famous Miracle Wheat – now rebranded – ended up. The article was written by John Adam Bohnet who had grown the original Miracle Wheat on farmland adjacent to the United Cemeteries, then owned by the Watch Tower Society through the United States Investment Company.
