OT: Where in CT can I buy silver queen corn?

[wethyhusky]

Roger's Orchard on the Southington / Wolcott line has white corn out now. Took a 6 rack to the face this weekend. Best corn of the year. The summer peaches were pretty solid after a day on the counter too.

Probably were NJ peaches. The CT crop was almost entirely wiped out this year

Quite possibly. My 4 year old wolf cheesed all 3 of them before I could even get my hands on one. What beat up the crop? No rain?

If anyone wants amazing CT produce I would go to the Coventry farmers market. Everything is a little pricy, but you are getting the best.

I thought I read that Coventry farmers market ended its run at the close of last year's season. Is there a successor?

Huge temperature drops at wrong time of peach formation.My parents are farmers, so they were disappointed with that result

Winter ice/cold snap.

It is back. Same location, but run by town of Coventry. Just as big, and really great. I help my dad out there because it's so busy.

Don't roll your eyes. This is a serious question. Anyone know where silver queen corn is sold?

In SE Ct there is Whittle's Willow Spring Farm in Mystic. They planted to having it now and will continue to have it into October

Omg time flies. I remember this thread from last summer like it was from memorial day '16.
