Advent Gulch, Blue Corn

Advent Gulch, Blue Corn. High-altitude adapted landrace blue corn bred in Advent Gulch, in Western Idaho near Hell’s Canyon. Extremely vigorous in cold soil. Idahoan Mike O'Brien spent 40 years developing this delicious variety in the Intermountain West to perform exceptionally well in cool soil and higher altitudes. With exceptional cold-soil germination and emergence, as well as early maturing cobs. This corn thrives in cold soils and has adapted to much of southern Idaho. It is a mix of flour, flint, and dent corns and is wonderful for polenta as well as "corn nuts" (parched corn). He also makes a hell of a good cornbread with it! Mike reminds growers to pull back the husks while the cobs dry down or they will mold. Corn seed may be saved after harvest for planting in subsequent years.
