First Corn

   Today we picked some of our own corn that we had growing in our garden. We had never tried growing corn and were a little apprehensive about it. When having a garden with woods around it cuts down on the amount of light the corn receives. The plants didn't grow as tall as if they were growing in the fields but, we still got some cobs to grow on them. Even some of them had two cobs growing on them. The cobs came out a little bit smaller than the ones at the farm stand but were still delicious. The kids reply to me asking what they thought of the corn was "it's so good we can't even stand it ". I guess we'll have to grow corn next year too.
