Corn is one of the treasures summer we look forward to every year! Sweet corn comes in a variety of whites and yellows and is available from the peak of summer through early fall. It is descendent of a native grass and is related to 100s of colorful varieties of flour corn and popcorn. It is normal for organic sweet corn to have small worms or caterpillars that have eaten out the top kernels. Welcome these as a sign of the health and sweetness of the corn.

Caring for Corn: Store sweet corn in its husk in the crisper drawer of your refrigerator. Enjoy within 2-4 days.

Preparing Corn: The sweetest corn can be eaten uncooked, right off the cob. It can also be sliced off the cob and added to salsas, salads, fritters or eaten on its own. For slightly older corn, grill it in the husk or pull the husk off and steam or boil it whole.
