A massive cornfield is at one end of the street where I live. They usually plant corn, although one year it was a hayfield. It takes them days to harvest all of the crop, and they still have a ways to go before they are finished.
I assume that most of the corn is used for grain to feed cattle, but also could be used for anything from corn syrup to fuel additives. I don't think any of it is meant to go directly on people's tables, or they would have harvested it all by now. It's been weeks since they were last here.
So I just continue on my fall walks and admire the remaining vibrant colors in the neighborhood, before the next storm strips the first wave of colors bare.
