Latest corn crop emerges

Another happy crop of yellow goodness is on its way. There is something magical or mythical about corn that really intrigues me. Perhaps because its a staple that has been with humanity for thousands of years. This is sweet corn and while only enough for probably two meals will be thoroughly welcome at our table.

Corn: Tall straight soldiers

Our foray into corn has gone well. They have grown tall and straight and true from the moment they emerged from the soil. We eat corn with pretty much every meal so we would need quite a crop to keep up with our consumption levels but the fact that they have grown so well may warrant setting up a dedicated cornfield. We shall see... but in the meantime the dozen or so we will harvest are sure to be tasty and golden yellow.
