Seed Potatoes

Today’s headline story coming to you Fresh From Our Farm is called “And It’s A Wrap!”  We are pleased to let you know that #plant19 is now complete. All the seed potatoes are safely underground where they belong despite an extraordinary cold and wet spring here at the farm.  The photos above show some of our seed potatoes in storage before we started planting.  Each wooden box holds approximately 3,600 seed potatoes and each white tote bag is holding about 5,000 seed potatoes.  So how many seed potatoes are you looking at in each of the photos? I would tell you but that wouldn’t be any fun at all. Feel free to do the math and see what you come up with.  To watch a video of our potato planter in action you can visit “Tater Tales May 17th.”
