In honor of Sweet Corn Appreciation Day, House Minority Leader Tony McCombie is hosting an event on August 1st. Leader McCombie passed legislation in 2022 to make August 1st the official Sweet Corn Appreciation Day and this year’s event marks the 3rd annual celebration.
“There is so much to love about sweet corn and the best way to enjoy it is alongside family and friends,” said McCombie. “I hope everyone comes to celebrate, eat great sweet corn, and enjoy a day of family fun!”
The event will feature bounce houses, face painting, and, of course, sweet corn.
The date, time, and location for the Third Annual Sweet Corn Day are as follows:
