Corn! I’ve never grown corn before due to the time and space involved, but living in northern climes has made me miss the fresh sweet corn we took for granted back in Cali. So this year, we’re gonna try this northern variety and see if it produces ears before the cold sets in. Fingers crossed for an awesome fall barbecue!

    Not entirely ripe or as big as I’d like, but had to start pulling ears because the weather’s getting colder. Will start earlier next year.
