Does anyone know where I can find Heirloom seed corn for the variety know as "LIMBER COB?

This is a very tasty variety, that is long and slender. Often, 3-4 ears grow on each stalk. The cob is very limber, hence the name.

(It makes the best corn cob jelly! When I was a little girl growing up in East Tennessee, my father was able to get this for our garden from an old farmer, who lived in the mountains. Unfortunately, the year my father became ill, he lost his seed corn.

I have looked for 10 years for a start. I would truly love to grow this again. Asked by 1majamom!

Call Miles Hamrick of Shelby NC at the number below. Limber cob seed $1.50/per lb. Miles Hamrick, Shelby 704-434-7988.

There are a few sources for limber cob corn online, but Mr. Hamrick is your best bet for matching exactly what you grew up with. Shelby NC is in western North Carolina, so it's very close to east Tennessee. I would expect his strain to be the same one you are looking for!

Where can I buy yellow corn. Not from the can but on the cob. Have been to several stores and they only have white.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
