Corny Dolls at Briden Farm

This is sort of a takeoff of something I’ve wondered about for a long time! Did the Wampanoag or Pequot or perhaps the Pilgrims (All Ancestors) ever make Dolls like this from the corn they grew? These are made from the Dent Corn we planted and we’ll dry them to use for next year’s seed. Dent Corn is used for both making Corn Meal and Livestock Feed.

A little research shows that many of the Tribes, and others, have made Corn Dolls, and many of them make mine look primitive!
