Tender skinned and flavorful new potatoes are a special treat! With our no-till methods they are a lot of work to plant and dig without any machines. But we think it's worth the effort for our CSA members.

We sprouted the potato "seeds" for a couple of weeks in the greenhouse and planted them deep through last year's cover crop.

This way they can get established before the potato beetles emerge. We will still scout for eggs and bugs later this season.

When they emerge from the ground we will cover them with compost rather than hill them.

By the beginning of July we should be enjoying the first harvests.
