In large saucepan, combine wheat berries and cold water to cover by 2 inches. Cover and let stand at least 6 hours or overnight.
Drain wheat berries. In same saucepan, bring 4 cups fresh water to a boil. Add wheat berries and 1/4 teaspoon salt and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold running water and drain well. Set aside.
Meanwhile, in medium saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil. Add millet and 1/4 teaspoon salt and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer until tender, 25 to 30 minutes. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, 10 minutes. Place in large, shallow container, fluff with fork and spread out. Let stand until cool.
While grains are cooking, if using walnuts, preheat oven to 350°F. Spread nuts on baking sheet and bake until toasted, about 10 minutes. Set aside.
