Yesterday and today I helped my parents and nephew freeze corn. We had a good sweet corn crop in our yard and this weekend was when it was perfect ripeness.
The morning started off cold, so a jacket was needed when my mom and I started to pick the corn.
And, the grass was wet, so flip-flops were not the right choice for the feet. But we got our pans full and headed over to the fence to start husking it.

My mom with the corn after she got them all washed off....this was just batch number 1 of 3 total batches that we did....over 100 bags total!
Ethan put the corn in the boiling water, my mom cooled them off, then my dad and I cut the corn from the cob, and then my mom put them in the bags...

The corn looks delicious! It would have been fun to have helped you!
