Kraszewice - a village in Poland located in the GrabowskaValley,

in the southern part of Wielkopolska region.

The first information about Kraszewice comes from 15th century,

1423 AD.

There is a mill in our village from 1909 .

In the past the mill had water drive and met only the needs of the local population.

The mill is still developing. In 1998 it was modernised to comply with the European Union Standards.

Its production includes a wide range of wheat and rye flour.

It is very modern and farmers haveless work to do thanks to newmachines and farming equipment.
