Deep Creek Lake-Sweet Corn-Fratz Farm. ext time when you are coming into Deep Creek Lake, presumably from Interstate 68 via Route 219, you will find the sweetest of the sweet corn at Fratz Farm in-between Accident and McHenry. There are some things that are hyped up for flavor, like a bottle of wine or a restaurant recommendation, but they rarely live up to the immense words that are used to describe them. This small-town farm has no problem backing all the wonderful things that patrons say about them summer after summer regarding this delicious summertime vegetable. On your way into the lake you will notice the corn fields off to the right with many different signs with numbers on them. I am sure this is the different hybrids they grow each year propagating their sweet corn species. This cross-hybrid process normally works in producing a plant breed that maximizes size, drought and insect resistance as well as increased flowering times. Okay, I ramble. Bottom line…when you’re coming into town, you will pass the farm anyway, and the corn is out of this world delicious! Get two times more than you think you will eat because it will be a bigger hit than your main course!
