Grow Potatoes

Living in a small apartment we dreamed of being able to grow our own food. We read about rooftop and container gardens, but we never quite got there. It seemed a little too complicated. Now that we have a yard, we are able to experiment and grow our own food. It is shockingly easy. Like really very easy. For example, look at these awesome fingerlings:

Do you know the level of skill it took to create these? Absolutely none. We put our seed potatoes in the ground. That’s about it. We don’t really even need to water here. Now we have awesome potatoes. A lot of them. All my favorite kinds.

Growing potatoes has empowered me. No matter where I live next, I will grow them. There is no reason everyone shouldn’t be growing potatoes. They grown well in containers. Do it.
