Hughesville events

By Staff | Aug 9, 2011

Fun Fact For The Week: Corn is America’s number one field crop and leads all other crops in value and volume of production. One ear of corn averages 800 kernels in 16 rows, and one pound of corn consists of approximately 1,300 kernels. It’s time for fresh homegrown tomatoes and corn!! My record is eight ears of corn and four tomatoes! Yum!

Pet Peeve For The Week: The closing of Borders Bookstore.
