All field corn nowadays is hybrid, and hybrid seed is not always able to replicate its mother plant. As to eating, though, we always grew field corn and ate it, never had sweet corn until I was grown. Not as good as sweet corn, but really big hearty ears!

Still, dent corn in its early milk stage is quite edible, and not so sicky-sweet as some of the new supersweet garden corns. It must, however, be cooked and eaten quickly --- it won't hold for a day or so in the refrigerator and still be good.

It will likely grow, but will not be as sweet as corn that is bred for the garden. Field corn is grown for animal feed it is a larger plant with a lower sugar content. You could use it to produce more deer corn. Deer corn is likely field corn which is different than garden corn. It will likely grow, but will not be as sweet as corn that is bred for the garden.

I don`t know what type it is, feed or seed corn but if it can survive North Dakota winters in good shape then you should be ok.
