@lucypics We used to farm this land but when our sons went to NZ to farm we retired & sold the land but kept the house...we get all the pleasures of the farming year with out the work Lucy!!
Maize is corn on the cob & is used as cattle feed in the winter. It's chopped up small & carted in like silo...very good for milk production & not harvested until October time depending on weather. Maize has done extremely well this year unlike last year...it loves the sun & you can almost see it growing at times. Most of the grain crops have been harvested round here in the last couple of weeks...just getting the straw in.
What a lovely glow -and it goes on and on....We are enjoying local corn on the cob - sweet corn - not cow corn - we cook it on the grill in the husk after soaking in water ( I remove the tassels - the silk as it catches on fire). Yum.

The maize in our area will be harvested in October or November as well. So similar to you!
