    Thank you so very much our American Farmers!! You do so much for so little money, praise and thanks. You keep our country alive and going, without your hard work this country would NOT be here!
    Thanks from a ex-rancher

    My dad was a corn farmer in Mexico and life was tough, and my mom helped run their farm, and I always wondered why my moms arms were so muscular even though she was no longer on a farm. Muscle memory! Farming is tough work! Thanks for the video!

    Wow this reminds me of when I was a kid. I'm 48 now. My grandpa would plant a strip of sweet corn for us with a 6 row planter. Actually did all the corn planting with a 6 row planter. Mercy me , how time has changed.

    Erin, I know that your father doesn't like the internet stuff much, but I can speak for many of us out here that we do like seeing him in your videos. Tell your father that I said thanks for being in the videos showing us how he works and also for raising you so well! I also thank you for just being you!

    The video reminds me of when we used to grow a few rows of potatoes for our own use , it took longer to get the planter out of the shed and then put away again after than the actual planting ever did.
    Your videos are excellent and very educational for farmers across the other side of the Atlantic , I hope the foot is well on the way to recovery, Thank You

  • @SteveKluver
    @SteveKluver 3 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Thank you for the show!
    We have found over the years. It's best for us around here (West Central Iowa), to plant the sweet corn out in the middle of the field. Otherwise, it's easier for the raccoons when roaming the ditches at night. To smell it, then find it, and eat most of it up! If it is on the end rows.

    Sweet corn planted by a sweet lady, Miss Erin! Nice to see you smiling again! You must be feeling better? So you are growing only a few rows of sweet corn for your own family use? I know that I would if I could and had the means! I LOVE Olathe sweet corn grilled in the husk! MMMMM MMMMM!
    I see that those plastic bins on that planter are easily removable? I saw Laura Farms vacuuming out their planter's bins with a shop vac as they were getting them ready for planting seed corn. Maybe the shop vac is easier and quicker? I'm curious?

    We sort of do the same thing here I pick out about four different varieties ranging maturity from like 72 to 90 day and then we just load them first now we're only using four row planter but we pick out several fields some years some years just one or two depending on what the rotation is here and we'll sneak out before we start planting the field corn and run the sweet corn in and then sweep everything down into the units load the field corn on top and go used to be when we planted with the old two row we wouldn't clean it up and put it away till the 4th of July and we plant the last around July 4th a lot of years we'd be sitting eating supper after milking in the evening on Halloween night when the trick-or-treaters showed up blew their minds when we were eating our own fresh sweet corn on Halloween hey Erin here's wishing you and your family a safe spring from those of us here in Western PA

Peel down the husk, brush on REAL butter (never any fake butter substitutes or margarine), a little sea salt and YUM! Sometimes I like them sprinkled with some lemon pepper too! The Ky State Fair started me liking the lemon pepper on their roasted corn at the booths on the midway.

Then we trapped them and gave them to a guy that let them out away from us. It was a fun time. My dad plants Providence sweet corn. It's really sweet and good.
