Dennis: Crops in Kansas--Was Jar Weights

[Guest guest]

How about millet?

How about some heirloom crops? I'll bet you dollars to donuts the

reason the " western " crops are so " picky " is that they've been

hybridized for our growing conditions and marketing techniques...and

patentability (is that a word?).

I recently contacted this Oklahoma-panhandle-based source for

information about heirloom grains:

CORNS

Route 1 Box 32

Turpin, OK 73950

580-778-3615

Open-pollinated corn.LSASE for info/Catalog $1.00

What all do you raise?
