    I've been listening to Joseph talk about his plants for at least a few seasons. My climate is generally wet and the ground is acidic(coastal Maine)
    Last year I grew 7 hybrid sweet corn varieties in a block and didn't produce enough to eat and save seed. We were in drought most of that summer. This year I grew the f2 seed from the few that did ok last year. This year was very wet and had few sunny days. We've been eating corn several times a week, fed the chickens the poor quality ears daily for weeks and I have plenty of seed for next year!
    Between 2 adverse and opposite seasons and next year being the magic 3rd year I'm very excited for next season. This was a great talk to listen to while putting up seeds! Thank you

    Baker Creek is amazing. I got some Hopi turquoise corn. It did extremely well, really beautiful. I gave away thousands of seeds at the fair this year. 🌞

      More like it's returning to the way it's supposed to be. Corporations have really decreased the genetic diversity of our food supply

    I have now ordered seeds and made a donation for squash corn and watermelon seeds interested to see where it takes me. Love Joseph’s work.

      I have found that you can grow just about anything in Indiana.

    some beans can also be toxic even within cultivated species. dont grow kidney beans and similar
    very cool seeing the slutty tomato flowers 😅 i can see an ornamental appeal too!

      @@jackholman5008 yes but how do you know if your new offspring is toxic or not raw? you could boil all of them but then you miss out on yummy raw bean pods

      If you eat just five raw kidney beans, it will coagulate your blood and kill you...
