S3E133 Three Ways We're Growing Potatoes On Our Homestead This Year


Listen Later

 Because I primarily garden in raised beds that are about 10 to 12 inches deep until a couple of years ago, I had only tried growing potatoes once.  A big part of the reason why I didn't try growing potatoes is because I thought you need a depth and a quality of soil that I don't have.  Another part of the reason why I didn't grow potatoes is because I had only seen them grown in the very labor intensive "dig a ditch" and then "hill the crap" out of them before playing hide and go seek with the potatoes with a potato fork.

But, then I discovered the Ruth Stout method which I've used for the past 2 years.  And this year I'm trying 2 more methods that are supposed to be much less work while still producing a good harvest. 

Enjoy!!
