Deborah stopped by a market on 46, in the first retail strip most people see in Columbus, last week and got some corn. She took some photos of the boys eating it and I think I did too.
Looks like I only captured Duncan.
The thing about this market is that it carries local products (meat, vegetables, soap, honey etc.) and seems to have a low margin. Our 8 ears were $4. Plus they take credit cards, which makes it especially easy for we of our of town bank.
Its been a bad year for corn. Where it was planted early enough to avoid sticking equipment in mud, the rain prevented deep root growth, so it's been a year off flood and drought for corn. Corn grown here is small, a bit less sweet and in short supply. But that's okay, that's agriculture.
One thing turns that around for us. No matter the size or availability, our boys love corn and that earases despair.
