Joe sent in this tip:

“An easy way to make a corn field is to soak corragated cardboard for about 5 minutes in warm water. Then peel off outer layer and allow the other layer with flat surface to dry. When dry, paint brown, and sprinkle ground brown cover on it. When dry you can ‘plant’ your corn stalks into the high parts, it looks great and makes perfect straight rows.”
