I went to a MN Twins game (awesome new field!!!!) and everybody’s munching on sunflower seeds!
Sunflower seeds 'Titan'
When the backs of your sunflower heads turn from banana yellow to brown and are droopy, cut the seed head off leaving about 12 to 18 inches of stem.
Hang the heads in a warm, dry, ventilated area until the seeds loosen and dry. Then rub the heads together or use a wire mesh screen to remove the seeds from the head. Store in an airtight container until you’re ready to roast.
