Corn!

The most frequently question we get asked at the farmstand could be: “do you have corn?” Many visitors have fond memories of corn from the farm over the years.

Well friends, the answer is yes.

We’ve carefully tended the corn over the past few months, watering, weeding, and even covering a whole block of corn rows with orchard netting to protect it from the sparrows that gobbled up much of last year’s crop. This weekend we harvested our first bushel of corn to sell in the farmstand – incredibly sweet, tender, and delicious simply eaten raw.
