Roy's Calais Flint Corn Shelling

   I grew this corn for meal this year. It is an Abenaki strain and is said to be one of the few things that grew in Vermont in the summer of 1816. I have never shelled corn and do not have the right tools.

   This worked very well. I planted one package of seed from High Mowing and in a rather shitty, colds, wet summer. I got about 90 ears, some quite small. I had no idea that the yield would be so good.

  
   I am astounded. This will make more corn meal than we tend to use in a year, with lots of seed for next year. Fuck you Monsanto.
