Organic Farm - Potato Field
Organic Farm Tour

Organic Farm Potato Field

This sandy hill on our Organic Farm seems to be ideal for growing potatoes.  Legend has it that the bottoms from the adjacent mobile home park lake were once pumped onto our farm, explaining the sandy hill on a farm that is otherwise mostly clay.  I spend about a half hour here every summer day - walking down each of the 1,200 or so plants and squishing any potato bugs I find (Yuck!). 
Such is life on an Organic Farm . . .
