Canning and freezing fresh corn

It's Independence Day and Chaplains Don Baker and Dennis Maloney buckle down and do whatever is needed, like shucking corn!

There is a bumper corn crop this year due to the nice spring rains we had here in eastern Oklahoma.

Dennis carries corn silks to the garbage. We sure need some pigs! :-)

The corn canning operation in the little chapel kitchen.

We are thankful for the stove that Dennis and Sally had in storage.

Sally Maloney is a whiz!! She knows all about canning. 

LaVon Baker is a good helper.... and photographer.

Dennis getting more corn to take outside to shuck.

We canned about a total of 100 pints of corn and put 75 ears in the freezer for corn-on-the-cob.

At some point in the future, we envision feeding hot meals here at

The Sycamores Chapel
