In addition to our popular yellow sweet corn and white sweet corn. we are now offering our bicolor sweet corn at our farm stand in bags of 16 ears for $8.50 and in bags of 8 ears for $4.50.

Remember, Mother Nature is in charge of ripening the corn, so there may be days when any one of these varieties isn't quite ripe enough and we have to wait an extra day or two to pick.

Our hours are Monday - Saturday 8:00 am to 7:00 pm and on Sundays 10:00 am to 7:00 pm.

For your convenience, we have also opened a second location at 13177 Portland Road NE. Hours at that location are Monday - Sunday 9:00 am to 6:00 pm.

We accept cash, most credit and debit cards and Farm Direct Dollars coupons.

We are open for the 2026 corn season! We apologize for the problems reaching us by phone yesterday. There was apparently an area-wide phone outage.

We have our white sweet corn available at the stand in bags of 16 ears for $8.50 and in bags of 8 ears for $4.50.

The yellow sweet corn should be ready to pick a few days after that. Mother Nature is in charge of how and when crops are ripe and ready to pick.

Most days through the peach harvest, we will have peaches at the stand, too.

This week, we saw pollination occurring in the cornfield! During the next two weeks, the baby ears of corn will continue to grow larger and the individual kernels will gradually fill out. Our estimate is that the corn harvest will begin around August 1st, but Mother Nature has the final say! Stay tuned for weekly updates.

The cornfield is looking great today! Lots of tassels visible, and even one teeny tiny corncob showing silks! We're hoping that July gives us a month of nice weather so we can be on schedule to start picking corn the first week of August. If you're interested, here is an explanation of the jobs of the tassels and silks in a cornfield: https://www.garden.eco/corn-tassel
