Sweet Corn Season: Why It Tastes Better From the Farm
It’s no exaggeration to say that nothing beats the flavor of sweet corn fresh from the field. At Richfield Farms, our corn is picked at peak ripeness—often the same morning you buy it. But what really makes farm-fresh corn better than the grocery store kind?
Here’s why our sweet corn stands out:
Timing is everything: Corn’s natural sugars start turning into starch as soon as it’s picked. That means store-bought corn, which can sit in transit for days, loses its sweetness fast. Our corn goes from stalk to stand in a matter of hours.
You’re getting peak flavor: Fresh corn is juicier, crisper, and tastes like summer. When it’s this good, all you need is a little butter (and maybe some salt).
Local corn supports local land: Buying from Richfield means your corn was grown nearby—not shipped across the country. That means fewer emissions and more support for local agriculture.
Don’t wait too long—sweet corn season is short but oh-so-satisfying. Stop by and grab a few ears before they’re gone!
