Sweet Corn Crop - 2012

Summer is definitely giving way to fall around here...
 

School has begun, and I even saw some leaves on the ground earlier in the week.
 
Late August also means...

 
picking sweet corn!

 
Every year when the corn is being planted, we put in a patch of sweet corn on the edge of one of the fields.

 
Above is a sample of this year's bounty.

 
My little helper was proud of her pickings :)

 
And we enjoyed some with our supper last night.

 
Today we cooked, cut and bagged the corn to be frozen. Quite the process, but it's always great to enjoy some of that sweet corn long after the harvest has passed.
