Glass Gem Corn looks like it was made by a jeweler. It wasn't. It was made by one man, one kernel at a time.
In the 1980s, Oklahoma farmer Carl Barnes began crossing ancient Native American corn varieties: Pawnee miniature popcorn, Osage Red Flour, and Osage Greyhorse. Each season, he saved only the most vividly colored kernels and replanted them. He did this for years.
The result is a flint corn with translucent kernels that retain their color even when dried. Every ear is different. The colors cannot be predicted.
In 2012, a single photo went viral. Seed orders crashed websites.
Barnes passed away in 2016. The Cherokee Nation had called him a valued resource, instrumental in forming their seed bank.
He said: "The seed remembers."
