Goodness Facts
Sweet corn is high in folacin and a good source of Vitamin C, thiamin, magnesium, and potassium. And butter, well, it's a dairy product!

Our new super-sweet varieties are excellent.  Of course, we grow lots of bicolour varieties (the Peaches N' Cream type) and the traditional all yellow. We pick early in the morning and keep the corn cool to ensure the best flavour.

Cooking Corn
To enjoy the fresh flavour of our corn, the sooner the better is the rule of thumb. Most people overcook their corn, which causes the kernels to convert their sugars to starch. Try one of these methods to ensure your corn is sweet and tender:

• Bring water to a boil, add husked corn and remove cobs once water has returned to a boil.
  OR
• Pull husks back from corn, keeping husks attached. Remove as much silk from the corn as possible; replace husks, covering kernels. Using kitchen twine, secure husks at tops. Place corn in a large bucket of cold water. Let soak 1 hour.
  Transfer corn to grill (medium heat). Cook until husks are charred and the corn has steamed, about 10 to 15 minutes depending on the heat of your grill. Remove corn and discard husks.

Freezing Corn
Many people freeze corn on the cob in the husk. You can also husk and blanch (in boiling water) the corn and then freeze it.
