Where’s the corn? Paul Willard had this to say: “We had too much rain in June, too little rain in August. The corn is behind schedule, and we lost some of the crop. Corn will continue to be sporadic for the rest of the season. The good news is that it will go late into the season if we don’t get a hard frost. This could be the first year we’ll have corn on Halloween!”
