Mesa Maize is a sweet corn seed
company
founded in 1978 by David Galinat, who is widely recognized
for introducing sugary-enhanced sweet corn to the world marketplace.
Mesa
Maize enjoys the position of industry leader in
the
development of high quality SE hybrids. We are proud
to announce a new breeding breakthrough — the
TABLESWEETTM mark, which redefines
the
endosperm class of homozygous SE sweet corn. It
signifies varieties
with the great corn flavor you enjoy in SE
hybrids,
with elevated sugar levels resulting in varieties that are sweeter
initially, and hold their sugar longer.
TABLESWEETTM quality was first
available in
Parfait
TSWTM.
Our research and production
headquarters
is in Olathe, Colorado, in the Uncompahgre Valley
on
the Western Slope of the Rocky Mountains, where the high, arid climate
is
ideal for seed production and storage. We run
extensive
breeder’s hybrid observation trials and inbred
development nurseries. Our climate is exceptional for
selecting
lines with high sugar content. We also take
advantage
of summer in the southern hemisphere by planting an off-season nursery
in
Chile.
Our modern production facility is
complete
with a seed laboratory, refrigerated warehouse for
seed
storage, and a state-of-the-art sweet corn seed conditioning mill.
Plant Mesa Maize varieties and let
your
customers savor the flavor of the best-tasting sweet
corn in the world today.
