You might be wondering if our admin quit or has been on strike this season being there have been little to no updates on the corn.

Rest assured there is no strike. As a matter of fact, there isn’t even an admin, technically speaking. Simply a gal who volunteers her time updating social media on behalf of her father and two brother’s corn growing adventures.

The way I see it, if said father and brothers fail to update this gal because of all the uncertainties around farming, than it is this gal’s prerogative to refuse to update corn enthusiasts. Am I to post, “Not a clue, your guess is as good as mine”? Believe me, it has crossed my mind. Or what about, “Here is the physical address of the corn field, go see for yourself and let me know so I can update others.” That could be interesting.

Funny enough, this gal received a call from her father on Father’s Day. Upon answering the phone he proceeded to update me the rain and this week’s forecast concerns. Not only did he seem hesitant to update me on tomorrow’s plans, he was extremely hesitant.

Per my father, they will be attempting to pick corn by hand tomorrow morning starting at 8:00 a.m. If all goes as planned, they should be at the road side stand by 9:00 a.m. or shortly thereafter. As I understand it, it will not be as much corn as they would normally pick, but they will gauge the day as it goes.

With that said, please do not rush to the stand with high expectations tomorrow. However, if you are in the area and want to take a chance, you just might be one of the lucky few!
