Blue Mountain Flint Corn
Blue Mountain Flint Corn Dave has worked on Blue Mountain Flint for 35 years. It is 50% Painted Mountain, and has the same appearance and plant type.50% of its ancestors come from 20 different New England Flint Corns.

Because most of the heirloom corns are tragically inbred, anybody wanting to breed blue into their Flint corn for health purposes will be able to do so while expanding the genetic diversity of their project. I’m motivated to help other people in other places advance their own gene pools.Most customers will just use it as it is.
