Faith, Family, Farming, and Fresh Sweet Corn
The Alsum Sweet Corn story simply begins in an old-fashion way. In 1912, our newlywed grandparents purchased this farm, which at that time was a dairy farm. After milking cows for over half a century, Harvey and Elizabeth Alsum, sold the farm to their son, Ken and his wife, Myrna. They carried on the tradition of the dairy farm as they raised their three sons. However, life on a dairy farm is very interesting as well as surprising, and in the summer of 1976, Ken got a new idea. He had heard of the newly developed farmers market in Madison, WI and decided to plant some sweet corn to sell there. The Dane County Farmers Market had just begun and no one could foresee the tremendous growth and popularity that would occur in the future, but for our family, it was the fun and excitement of meeting new people and bringing fresh food to them that was appealing and fascinating. Scott, the oldest son, also began delivering sweet corn to stores in the West Bend area. Later, stands were added and the summertime fun kept growing and growing. Today, Scott and his wife, Lona live and work on the farm with their five children: Ben (Rosie, Brooks, Jacob, Emma), Brittany, Luke (Kenzie), Levi, and Lily (Andrew). If you have been to the Farmers Market in Madison on Saturdays, you will definitely meet them. Raising fresh produce and meeting great people are just some of the many benefits that we enjoy while working on our vegetable farm in Randolph.
