š° News we're reading
ā¢ Olathe sweet corn's most famous grower scales back operations (cpr.org) ā Olatheās best-known sweet corn growers are sharply scaling back production and ending their long relationship with Kroger, meaning youāll need to buy directly from Tuxedo Corn stands or their Highway 50 ācoolerā this summer. The Harold family cites drought, pests, and labor pressures but is optimistic that a more personal, farm-to-table approach will keep Olathe Sweetā¢ corn thriving.
