  We love homemade corn tortillas! We've been eating carnitas and birria tacos all week. I use store-bought dried masa, but maybe someday we'll try to grow our own grain corn.

  I am the guy who developed Painted Mountain Corn. I&apos;m happy to see that you grew some. &nbsp;It won a major tortilla making contest, and tied for first place for flavor! <br> <br>You grow some large slow-maturing dent corn. &nbsp;You must live in climate with a longer season than I have in N. Montana.

  You guys inspired me to order mushroom spawn! I&apos;ll be setting up 2 different types tomorrow. I&apos;m also planning some 3 sisters mounds for the growing season.

  This is what corn should be. Not the crap we get from the store. My goal is to obtain land so i can grow food like this every year! ❤❤❤ Maybe i can buy some seeds of y&apos;all 😂

  I got inspired from your corn growing, especially &nbsp;the 3 sisters and that is my next project. For now I bought organic dry corn and make tortillas from scratch, it was such a treat! I was avoiding corn for years as I worry about GMO, apparently all corn is affected by it. But now I will grow it too and hope for the best. As I was sowing some seeds today to start inside I was thinking how incredibly intelligent Nature is. One fruit or vegetable gives so many seeds, it is such an abundance. if everyone was able to grow even just a little bit of food the relationship with nature, food and land would shift for the better. Even though I have been growing vegetables for years and years your videos inspire me to look at my growing in a different way.

  What beautiful ears you have! &nbsp;So interesting to know about cooking that corn first before grinding it makes for better nutrition. I remember putting ears in a Dutch oven on the woodstove &nbsp;for a time to dry them out. It made for easier shelling. I look forward to seeing your garden as it comes along. I pulled some breakfast radishes from the cold frame today and I thought of you two. What a fine team you make.

  I love that Silvan isn&apos;t doing all the work by herself. ❤ What a dream. 😊 Keep up the amazing work, you two. I love watching your videos and seeing what an empowering and &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;earth-connected life we can live. ❤
