    We grew popcorn a few times. About 3/4 of an acre worth and at 2-3 ears per stalk, which were in the 8' plus height range made for lots of hand picking, husking and then a few bucks in sold stalks after the corn was picked. I'll have to see if I've got any pictures

    Doesn't look like much now since the peas (yielded a 1/4 bushel) and pickle cukes (yielded 2 bushels) are done for the season, but there's still some beans(yielded 1 1/2 bushel so far), red and white potatoes, zucchini, watermelon and tomatoes.

    1/2 acre of sweet corn that a third of will be ready by tomorrow (I planted in thirds so it all didn't come at once) IMG_1516.JPG And Concord grapes. Posts are 12' apart and someone missed pruning this winter :whistle: so they are a little out of hand.... IMG_1519.JPG IMG_1520.JPG I'm thinking next spring adding some blackberries to the grape trellis and putting in a stepped bed for strawberries
