A couple weekends ago, I went back home to do corn. I didn’t decide I was going to go until the last minute, but ultimately, my parents were glad to have the help and I got to write an article about it for The Town Dish, a network of hyper-local food sites, describing the entire process. It went live on Downingtown Dish yesterday!
I took a ton of photos for the article with our new SLR that we bought for our upcoming trip to Iceland. Here are some that I didn’t submit to the Dish.

Chad was a workhorse and took up a lot of the jobs my little brother usually does. He wasn’t around to do corn this year.

Chad happened to wake up at 6 a.m. on Sunday and decided to go take pictures of the sunrise in the cornfield.
