Bing’s Sweet Corn

I can still remember the first time I went to Bing Drewry’s farm to help him harvest sweet corn. It was more than a decade ago, when I was a young farmer and Bing was an old man living on the Drewry homestead down on Winooski Road. He was a nice neighbor who I was just getting acquainted with, and our shared love of growing vegetables led us to become good friends in his last years of life.
