3. It's wonderful!
There's a farm stand about a mile from my house that sells the best butter and sugar sweet corn I ever ate. I have never had a bad ear of corn from the place.

7. It's been great the past few weeks
I don't know if it's local though, just from the grocery store (there hasn't been any at the farmer's market yet).

Corn on the cob is my favorite summer food, I could (and often do) eat it every night
