The organization Schools for Chiapas is offering local, heirloom corn from Chiapas to home gardeners. You get 60 seeds of either white or yellow corn for $6.50 and the profits benefit a good cause. It's not to late for anyone stateside to start planning a corn row or two and 60 kernels to get started is perfect. Unless you have a huge lot of land, just pick one so they don't cross and be sure to save some of the yield to sow again next year.

I'll be doing it here in Napa and will have full reports and lots of cooking ideas come harvest in the fall.

Thanks to P.I.N.A. of Napa, for the the link to Schools for Chiapas.
