The small patch of Indian Corn was harvested and the cobs placed in the greenhouse to thoroughly dry. The kernels will be removed from the cobs and kept in a bucket. It will be nixtamalized and used for making gruel during the Winter. About half the crop was taken by a few squirrels over the growing season. The stalks were removed and put through the shredder and placed on the compost heap.
