...well somebody has to be held accountable for my predilection for potatoes!
Having already planted first and second earlies into a bed that's roughly nine foot by twelve foot, on Saturday (renamed Taturday) I planted twenty five Bluebelle seed potatoes into the recently split root bed. That measures roughly nine by seven foot. Over one hundred seed potatoes have already been planted. I have counted another ninety at home awaiting shoe horning. Poor Mr VVG has gone off to the allotment to dig over a skimmed off area of about four foot by twenty foot, which will become my spud overspill area for 2012. It was destined to be a paved area for seating and impromptu picnicking, but hey who needs to sit when there are jobs to be done?!?
When Potato Day takes place at Ryton's Garden Organic in 2013 will somebody please HOLD ME DOWN?
