"Gamble" Planting at Kimball Farm Reaps Bumper Crop of Corn

10/8/2012

 
28,330 lbs.as of 10/8/12

Believe it or not, we are into October and still gleaning corn!!

We harvested 1,680 lbs of corn this morning at Kimball Fruit Farm in Pepperell. Farmer Carl calls it his "gamble" planting. He plants his last couple of corn plantings in mid-July, with no irrigation, and hopes for the best - and he got it!

Thanks to Carl and to the small, and mighty, crew of volunteers!
