🌽 It’s Sweet Corn Season!
There’s nothing quite like biting into an ear of sweet corn picked at just the right time. Sweet, juicy, and full of summer flavor, it’s one of those things that reminds us why Wisconsin summers are so special.
Whether you’re firing up the grill, bringing water to a boil, or adding cobs to a seafood boil, sweet corn has a way of making any meal feel like summer.
You can find our fresh-picked sweet corn:
🏡 At the farm store – Open daily, 9 AM–6 PM
Mount Horeb Farmers’ Market – Thursdays 3:00-6:30pm
Mineral Point Market – Saturdays, 8:30 – 11:00am
🌽 Planning to Can or Freeze Sweet Corn?
Don’t wait! If you’re putting corn away for winter, give us a call to place a bulk order (📞 608-924-1404). We’ll schedule a pickup so your corn is freshly picked and ready to preserve.
🍴 Farmer Favorite: Grilled Corn with Herb Butter
Sometimes the simplest recipes are the best.
Ingredients:
4 ears sweet corn, husked
4 Tbsp softened butter
1 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley (or your favorite mix of chives, dill, or basil)
Salt to taste
Mix the butter, herbs, and a pinch of salt together.
Grill the corn over medium heat for about 10 minutes, turning occasionally until lightly charred. Brush generously with the herb butter and serve warm.
Simple. Fresh. Summer.
