Where are up to with the potatoes now?

As you can see they are doing well.

The ones on the right are second earlies and we are expecting them to start to die back soon as they reach the end of their cycle. We are hoping to have a nice bag of spuds soon.

It’s fascinating fact time….

The US Department of Agriculture has stated that “a diet of whole milk and potatoes would supply almost all of the food elements necessary for the maintenance of the human body.”

While this is probably true for the short term, it’s probably not going to do you any good in the long term. You would almost certainly not get enough iron, protein and vitamins A, E and K.
