Sweet Corn is #1 at “The Patch”
We can get it planted EARLY
We have some very sandy loam soils on our farm that Marvin can start planting on as early as March 20. The first several plantings are planted on clear plastic that heats up the soil to give our corn as JUMP START!
Marvin plants corn every week
Starting in March we will do our best to make a planting every week until mid-July. Now This is no easy task considering the weather and the many factors that must be dealt with. By planting every week we are able to have a ongoing supply of fresh sweet corn EVERY day at our markets. During summer 2014 we picked corn for our markets for over 90 straight days so that our customers could have a dependable source of AWESOME sweet corn!
We hand pick our sweet corn
Early every morning 7 days per week, our crew of LOCAL young adults trek into a dew-covered corn patch. (They love it – cant you tell??) Do you know what they have for breakfast every day?
Field to Table…. FAST.
Our sweet corn is delivered to our markets EVERY DAY right from the patch to the market within 3 hours.. Now that’s FRESH!!
