“Like millions of others in Illinois, sweet corn reminds us of summer and fun family memories. Sweet corn has always been a favorite of mine and we want to help make new family memories in NW Illinois. On Aug. 1, in Savanna we will celebrate Sweet Corn Appreciation Day! This is a family fun event with bounce houses, face painting and, of course, sweet corn. I hope you all will come and join in the family fun and celebrate sweet corn with us on Aug. 1” said McCombie.
