About us

Joseph E. Borries, Jr. founded the family business when he came back home from WWII. He proudly served in the Pacific Theater in the Philippines.

Borries Open Pollinated Seed Corn is a second-generation, family owned business. We have been in operation for over 50 years.

The business was started by Joseph and Harriet Borries in 1969. It is now owned by sons Gerald and Leonard Borries.

We grow and process four varieties: Krugs, Reids, Henry Moore, and Boone Co. White. The cost per bushel is $67 plus shipping.

We are located in Teutopolis, Illinois.
