Sweet Corn
Fresh sweet corn is a summer tradition, and a standard crop in home gardens and farmers' markets across America. Each year, Johnny's collaborates with a group of independent sweet corn breeders to trial the best existing and promising new varieties in the field. From this trialing program we select a high-quality assortment that combines superior eating quality with wide adaptability and ease of growing, including classic, old-fashioned sweet corn and normal, sugary-enhanced, synergistic, and super sweet varieties. For more information and definitions of these subtypes, see our Sweet Corn Typology Chart. To compare characteristics of individual varieties, see our Sweet Corn Comparison Chart.
