Farmer Joe's Corn




The corn is ready to harvest after a long wait. Joe planted these lovelies as seeds and has diligently watered and cared for them all summer long... his first crop! He even named a few of the plants. The big bummer was when the water was left running for a few hours one evening by accident and over half the stalks fell over. So at 9pm, with one small flashlight Becca, Joe and I set about saving them. With some twine...okay a lot of twine and ingenuity we got them set straight again!






The corn is so sweet.... now what to do with 37 ears of corn all ready to pick the same week?
