Would anyone out there be able to tell me where I might be able to purchase custom milled bread flour in the Kansas City area? Thanks!

If you don't mind me asking, what's a custom-milled flour?

I think they probably mean either a small mill that does runs of locally grown grains, or small mills that do custom blends of flour using different grains.
I asked my friend at Pendleton Farms outside Lawrence, she gave me a list of the closest mills. No clue on details of each, I'm just putting their websites here. I will be investigating them at length later.

This is where Wheatfields in Lawrence gets their flour.

While I'm here, who wants to arrange a Kansas City area bread baker's meetup? Bring a loaf and a friend.

Harold,
I don't know that any of the sources listed here do custom milling, but you may find something that is to your liking.
