2022 Amaizing Sweet Corn Festival

After the Harvest and the National Agricultural Center & Hall of Fame are partnering to host ATH’s first signature annual event, the 2022 Amaizing Sweet Corn Glean-A-Thon and Sweet Corn Festival.

Beginning July 15, corporate volunteer teams will harvest corn from three farms across the Kansas City metro. The estimated 50,000 ears of sweet corn will be delivered to area food pantries, food kitchens, and other local agencies serving people experiencing food insecurity. The competition will culminate in a Sweet Corn Festival on July 30, 2022, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the National Agricultural Center and Hall of Fame in Bonner Springs, Kan., which has a long history of promoting agricultural history and awareness in America. The event will include a shucking and scarecrow competition, live music, food trucks, and sweet corn and watermelon available for purchase.
