Farm Share Friday & THE SWEET CORN IS HERE!!!

It’s #FarmShareFriday!

If you couldn’t tell by the title, I am just mildly excited, as it’s not officially Summer in the great state of Iowa until the sweet corn is ready. This spring was cold and soggy which delayed the corn a bit, but it’s finally here and we are ready!

This annual vegetable milestone might not be exciting to any non-Iowans reading this, but you will just have to trust me there is nothing quite like a fresh ear of sweet corn roasted on the grill! Stay tuned for that demo! For now, here’s a picture of the corn fresh from the farm!

And if that wasn’t exciting enough, I have this super easy zucchini & corn pie recipe that I made TWICE last week! It’s great for using up those extra zucchini and I kept leftovers in the fridge for days and heated them up in the oven each day. I love a recipe that tastes just as good the second and third time I eat it! Here’s a photo from the recipe, mine wasn’t as photogenic!

This week’s farm share box was heavy, and colorful! Aside from the 12 ears of corn, we also received tomatoes, onions, peppers, herbs, cucumbers, cabbage, and jalapenos. I already have a couple recipes in mind but I will be searching Pinterest and sharing those that I loved.

For now, here’s another corn picture, because who can’t resist beautiful corn!

That’s all I have for you today, stay tuned for my last summer front porch refresh coming up real soon! As always, thanks for stopping by the blog today!
