CORN (Zea mays)
125 seeds per packet. The ultimate Native American crop. All types are grown the same way. At about the time of last frost in spring, direct-seed into the richest soil available, 1-2 inches deep. Whether planted in rows or beds, allow the corn plants up to about one square foot per plant, on average. Ears fill best when dry conditions are not allowed to prevail at tasseling time. Sweet corn is picked when milky juice is contained within the kernels; clear juice is immature, and chewiness means the ear is over-mature. Flour corn is left on the plant until thoroughly dry in the fall.

Yellow Hickory King Dent Corn
Large, yellow-kerneled variant of White Hickory King. It is also harder to find. This variety is still grown in the Appalachian region, where it has been a favorite since the late 1800s. Traditionally used for making roasting ears, hominy, grits, and in hidden mountain spots, moonshine! Huge stalks are quite strong.
