Coldstream Early Golden

This rare heirloom was shared with Garden Faerie Botanicals by Wayne, whose family grew it in the Coldstream Valley for more than a century. Carefully passed down through generations, this corn has been cherished for its fine flavour, dependable yield, and versatility in northern gardens.

Sturdy stalks reach 5–6 feet, bearing 8–10 inch ears packed with deep golden kernels. When picked young, the ears are sweet, tender, and full of rich old-fashioned corn flavour. Left to mature, they dry down to a handsome yellow dent, excellent for meal or feed.

It likely descends from early northern strains such as Pride of the North, Minnesota 13, or Early Yellow Canada, all renowned around the turn of the century for their short-season adaptability and robust constitution.

Coldstream Early Golden embodies the best of true homestead corn — early, reliable, and rich with history from a century of careful hands.
