Frequently Asked Questions
What is Nirvana sweet corn?
Nirvana is a bicolor (yellow and white) supersweet sweet corn known for crisp, tender kernels and big, full-tipped ears about 8 inches long. Supersweet varieties hold their sugar much longer after picking than older sweet corn types, so Nirvana stays sweet from the field to your table. It's non-GMO, and it's been our family favorite for years.
When is KiDZ Corn open?
Our season runs from the end of July through the end of August. During the season the stand is open Monday–Friday 10:30 am–5:30 pm and Saturday 10 am–5 pm, and closed on Sundays.
Do you take pre-orders or bulk orders for freezing?
Yes! We appreciate pre-orders, and they guarantee we'll have your fresh sweet corn ready for you even on days we sell out. We also do bulk orders for freezing and canning. Call 208-779-0155, email kidzcornidaho@gmail.com, or message us on Facebook to order.
What payment types do you accept?
We accept cash, checks, credit cards, and e-payments including Venmo, PayPal, and Zelle.
How long does fresh corn keep?
Sweet corn tastes best the day it's picked, but Nirvana is a supersweet variety that holds its sweetness much longer than ordinary corn. Keep it cold and skip the plastic bags: stored in the husk in the vegetable drawers of a fridge (a garage fridge is perfect), it keeps fresh for up to 10 days, and it's at its very best in the first few days. For longer storage, blanch and freeze it; frozen corn in zip-top bags keeps for as long as 2 years. See our freezing & cooking guide for step-by-step instructions.
Where is the stand?
Since we started in 2018, we've been at 6640 Ustick Road, Nampa, ID 83687. We're moving to a new location nearby for the 2027 season because of construction on Ustick. We'll announce the new address here and on Facebook as soon as it's finalized.
