(88 days) Open-pollinated. Developed by the northern Vermont Abenaki tribe and selected for generations to produce 7–9" ears that are long, thin and cylindrical, with an even 8 rows all the way to the shank. This form is valuable for drying early in the short Northeast season, before it can spoil from early freezes, surviving even the legendary summer of 1816 (“Eighteen hundred and froze to death.”)
The ears are either solidly golden yellow or a beautiful dark maroon, with some skewing a bit toward orange shades. If you grind each color separately you’ll notice flavor variations—all of it is delicious. Reliable and nutritious. Breeder Dave Christensen holds great appreciation for this eastern “brother” to Painted Mountain, calling it “the toughest of all the Eastern corns.” Indigenous Royalties. ①
