Sweet Corn!!

As the farmers know all too well - the weather plays a major and essential part in the growing season - speeding up or delaying crops. Well...wait no longer...SWEET CORN from Jenkins' Farms is in. It is ready and will be freshly picked for Wednesday's market, which is tomorrow - the 13th!!

If you haven't had the pleasure of eating Jenkins' sweet corn. You don't know what you are missing. Many farmers in Illinois say that have good sweet corn, but it is really your taste buds that make the final decision. I love it. It's the best sweet corn I've had since growing up in Oregon. The grocery stores can't compete. You decide for yourself....

How do you like your sweet corn?

Grilled?
Steamed?
Fire Roasted?
Boiled?
Drenched in butter?
Off the cob?
On the cob?

Stop by the market tomorrow - pick up your local sweet corn, fresh flowers and produce, handmade ravioli, meat or chicken from Ioerger Farms and some locally made spicy habanero caramels for the sweet end to a locally grown and made meal.

Spread the word - see you tomorrow!
