SWEETCORN...we had the stand opened for part of the day last Wed. and again Sat. afternoon. yesterday and again today we had enough corn to go full time. and full time we went. Sunday our sales surpassed our one day record by more than $100. yesterday our stand brought in $836. today the total was $870! as important as the figures are to us that is not the real story. our corn is the best around. there is no doubt about that. but we sell our corn strictly on an honor system. we pick the corn and fill the stand. our buyers come and bag their own corn and put the money in a box. so simple. so trusting. and it works. a wonderful tribute to the people of rural america! i am proud to be able to supply you with one of our summer treasures. thank you.

a little this. a little that.
i am home. a long but wonderful day. my life right now is one big wonderful high. it feels so good to be so at peace with all once again. i have had company on and off recently. always nice to have friends and family visit. and nice to see them go. you know, have things get back to normal. this time it was just nice to have friends visit. everything went so well, the time spent together so wonderful, that i hated to see it end. i am already looking forward to the next time we can see each other again.

ReplyDeletethank you larkspur - along with the hard work and the passion, yes,there is much passion involved with our sweetcorn stand, some luck always comes into play.
ReplyDeleteif that was our stand that you saw and the cars were only 3 deep it must have been a slow time.
anyway, i hope that whatever stand you stopped at, you were able to find a stand full of delicious passion picked corn.
