In a very large bowl, combine the grains, nuts, coconut, seeds, and spices. Mix with your hands. Drizzle in the honey and melted butter and stir with a spoon. Spread on 2 large baking sheets that have been lightly sprayed with vegetable oil, pressing lightly until mixture is 1/2 inch thick.

Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 15 minutes. (Granola should be a deep brown, but don't let it burn.)

Remove baking sheets from oven, Break granola into, large pieces, turn them over, and bake 5 more minutes.

Break granola into small chunks and place in the large bowl. Let cool completely. Add the prunes, apricots, and cranberries. 

In stemmed glasses, layer the granola, yogurt, blueberries, and strawberries, repeating the layers once. Store leftover granola in a brown paper bag at room temperature for up to 5 days.
