Does anyone else grow cool types of corn? If so post your photos here. I just picked these painted mountain corn cobs and think they look awesome

How do yours taste cool name? I couldn't even get chickens to scratch em haha but your right they look awesome!

I haven't tried grinding any, but the young fresh kernels are not too bad I suppose. Ofcourse it doesn't taste like sweet corn though

This is some glass gem corn that I am growing at the moment. I picked these two a bit too early but they still look really good

Dozer they aren't for eating fresh like sweet corn. They are really good for making corn meal and are also nice if you dry out and then shallow fry some kernels in olive oil with whatever seasoning you like.

I have painted mountain corn available if you want to work something out?

Hillbilly there will be free bloody butcher seeds available once they are all ripe and dry. Keep your eyes out for the giveaway
