Jimmy Red corn, a historic variety with deep roots in Southern agriculture, dates back to the late 19th century and was traditionally cultivated in the Carolinas. Its distinct red kernels and rich flavor made it a favorite among local farmers and food enthusiasts. The corn was not only a staple in many Southern households but also played a significant role in regional culinary traditions, including cornbreads and grits. By the mid-20th century, however, industrial agriculture nearly wiped out this heirloom variety, as farmers shifted to more commercially viable crops. Fortunately, dedicated growers and heritage advocates have revived Jimmy Red corn, bringing its vibrant history and unique taste back to the forefront, making it a prized ingredient once again. At Coulbourn Farm, we are proud to cultivate this historic corn variety, contributing to its preservation and celebrating its rich agricultural heritage.
