The Story of Suntava Purple Corn™
It took years of patience, expert cross breeding, across two hemispheres, to make purple corn this powerful.
AN "Aha" moment
Years ago, Lee and Joann French, a husband and wife research team, were studying purple corn (traditionally called “maize”). They used their knowledge of ancient maize strains and traditional farming methods to carefully develop new, natural hybrid lines, with more disease resistance. This meant pollinating each ear by hand, row by row, year after year on their farmland in rural Minnesota and later in South America.
Several years later, they discovered that their purple corn was not only good for farmers, but also good for people! The rich color in their exclusive corn came from the high level of anthocyanins contained in the entire plant, from the stalk to the cob, and down to the kernels. Suntava Purple Corn is now an excellent source for more healthful foods, beverages, natural color, cosmetics, and more!
Today, the Frenchs' spirit of profound commitment to science, nature, insight, and discovery continues forward in Suntava® Corporation. The consistent quality of our exclusive Suntava Purple Corn is unmatched, which is why more people are becoming Suntava fans and supporters.
