Rosedale’s corn has become a summer tradition in the Farmington Valley and it’s much more than just a delicious vegetable – it’s something that we look forward to year round! Rosedale’s local corn is a great source of antioxidants, such as lutein and zeaxanthin and is known to promote eye health and is a rich source of many vitamins and minerals. One of my favorite ways to enjoy Rosedale corn is with this tempting treat - Rosedale Mexican Corn Salad!
