RE: Alaskan Fall Harvest : Carrots and Potatoes
Your harvest looks great! I bet it was a lot easier harvesting your potatoes out of a bucket =D

Thanks 😊
Actually I would preferred the ground and pitch fork. In the buckets the dirt gets compacted and makes it hard to remove sometimes. But the buckets are easy to move and great for colder climates. Plus you can start your potatoes earlier in the year when you plant in the buckets.
So I try and just be happy that I am able to grow anything at all.
I grew up in the country, Idaho, where there are fields of potatoes everywhere. Most of my family has had something to do with Idaho potatoes, to include setting up the farms and factories. Not just driving dump trucks full of potatoes, even though that is kick ass and my uncle let me ride along. 💗
