 I don't think their corn is the "True" candy corn, like I mentioned earlier. Had it a couple times from there; not impressed. There's one truck that always parks by Walmart, and gets there early in the am...the corn is still cool and damp. That's when ya buy it...not after a day in the sun.

Does Dotch have a stash growing somewhere that we should know about?

Ok Glenn let the cat out of the bag.  We now know it is Dotch that has a secret field growing.  SO exactly where is all we need to squeeze out of Glenn.  He'll cave in and tell us.

Got my candy cawn today! Goin' for $7 a dozen here. I got 4 nice ears for $2.  :smiley: The kid said they sell most of theirs to a big corn place up north....I forgot the name of it. He said the corn was really doing good this year. Nice Kid. I like farm folk. Dressed in T shirt and jeans, short hair, and sitting on back of truck with NO IPHONE. Friendly. My kinda people.  :happy1:

On my errand list was getting sweet corn from the neighbor/customer/sheep shearer. Got there shortly after it was picked this a.m. and promptly put it in the fridge. $5 a dozen. It's Round Up Ready sweet corn so you have to be careful if you pee in the yard!  :azn:

Looks good. I bought 4 ears from a guy who had a stand in New Richland yesterday and it was good. He had some nice tomatoes too so I bought a couple from him.
Also bought half a bucket of cukes from Ed's produce on the way home. The warden made em into refrigerator pickles. YUM!

Is Ed's the place east of the landfill SE of town? I got's a hankerin' fer some fresh cukes one of these days... :happy1:

I see they're sampling the neighbor's pea field pretty intensely. They told me to go get some when they're harvesting if I want. Did that once and that was enough. By the time I got all the dirt out of them it was a lot of work. Much easier to buy them on sale in the store!  :bonk:

Yup that's the place. Great cukes, little rough on the atmosphere.

Cukes are great though. He picked them while we waited. Can't get any fresher than that.

Dat's what was so frustrating about the spring we had. Too wet to put anything in the ground every time I had a spare minute to work it up &/or plant it. I prefer fresh out of my own garden and we should have 'maters & string beans. No squash, cukes or melons tho. :sad: Bob's sweet corn is good but your best bet is to get it in the morning when it's picked rather than after it sits out all day. I miss not having our own sweet corn patch with several varieties & planting dates. As Art said, doesn't get much fresher than that. Maters in the fridge? Dat's sacrilege!  :rolleyes:

Yup. When I have some left over after a meal I will put the slices in the fridge. However, the only way I can tolerate them the next day is with copious amounts of COTTAGE CHEESE!!!!  :rotflmao:

My wife just got a dozen from Coburns in Big Lake.  They get it from a farm near Foley.   19 Cents an ear or $2.28 a dozen.  It looks great.
