Bolita amarillo yellow corn

In the small Oaxacan town of Santa Ana Zegache is where we source our white and yellow corn varieties from the local Zapotec community. The Velasco and Mendez families are cultivating their different bolita corn varieties in a traditional and sustainable agricultural system called la milpa. Here they combine the cultivation of corn, beans, butternutsquash and quelite herbs amongst others for a healthier soil structure, to prevent illness and improve yields without the use of artificial fertilizers or toxic pesticides.

The yellow corn variety is our personal favourite, due to bright yellow colour and outstanding taste which has vegetal notes of carrot and butternut squash.
