Description

Many of us have heard the phrase “Knee-high by the 4th of July” but how did it start and is it still relevant?  Tune in to this episode and learn all about “corn-isms” from host Jim Robinson, Rob-See-Co Corn & Soybean Product Manager, Wayne Fithian, Agronomy Manager at Rob-See-Co and Brenda Christensen, Marketing Manager at Rob-See-Co.  Brenda talks about her Dad using the phrase while driving by corn fields during family road trips but it actually dates back to 1874.  Why was it important and what did it mean?  Did you know there was a connection to baseball?  Listen in to the discussion and learn the meaning of this “corn-ism” and some others that you may not know.
