Our Natural Popcorn

This summer we grew some popcorn.  Yes, real popcorn!


We pulled the cobs and let them dry in the barn.  Hubby shelled the cobs and came in with a bowl full of popcorn!

He had to sift out the hucks and pieces of the cob as well as any other trash.


When he finished, we had a bowl full of natural popcorn!


We put it in the mircowave....

It popped better than any we have ever bought and had a great taste!

There is nothing like growing your own snacks! So bring on the movies....

  9. That is very cool! I remember using the air popper when I was a kid and being fascinated by the popping corn, but we never grew our own. Awesome!

    Stopping by from Lady Blogger Society :) Hope you have a nice weekend!

  10. That is so cool. I didn't know getting a bowl of popcorn was so time consuming. Though I might have to look into doing this as Trey and I love to eat popcorn.
    Have a great day!
