Oh, my, yes! It is no different that tame asperagus, just grows around here wild.
DH says he also likes Jerusalem artichokes, I know you eat the root, but I've never had it - it was a weed where I grew up! LOL!

I just dearly love asparagus but did not know it grew wild. I haven't heard of that kind of artichokes. Sounds interesting.

Well, if I had a choice between artichoked, asparagus and some of that corn, I'll take the corn hands down!!!!

My Dad designed grain elevators and feed mills.. .quite a few in Iowa actually. How far are you from St. Ansgar? He designed a big one there years ago! If he could see that corn now, he'd be thrilled! I like to think my Dad is in the great corn field in the sky!

Sweet corn is ready in Ainsworth. I had a client call me this week. We are going there today and getting some, although I still have some in the freezer from last year. I am going to eat sweet corn til i drop this weekend.
We got our tomatoes in way late, but I think the first ones will be ready in a day or two!

Mary - I'm about 3 hours south and west of Mason City. I think it took 4.5 hrs to drive to LaCrosse, WI.
