We Struck Gold, Yukon Gold


Last weekend we found the last of our carrot crop, this weekend we dug up the last of the potatoes.  There was more then I was expecting and we feasted on a big bowl of mashed potatoes with our dinner.  The garden is ready for spring to come and plant some more.

  2. It seems like kids are more likely to eat vegetables when they help grow them. You've had a good harvest this year!

  3. I love Yukon Gold. I pull my potatoes that I grow in a barrel early, usually in September. If I leave them in the pots too many worms and nematodes riddle them. I store them under the bed in the cabin's back bedroom. The Norland red potatoes have already started sprouting (no problem, I'll use them for seed potatoes), but the Yukon Golds are a firm and fresh as the day they came out of the ground. - Margy

  5. I am surprised you can work the soil at this time of year. Would have thought the earth was frozen.
