By the looks of the large scale potato planting operation that my Mum and Mike did on Monday at their allotment, we are going to have a LOT of potatoes this year! They planted 84 rows with 60 potato plants in each row - enough potatoes to probably feed the w
hole village. I am not knocking it - I love free home grown food and everything that comes from their allotment is delicious - but I do think when you are using a tractor this size you can't really call it an allotment any more, more a small farm!!

ReplyDeleteI call that good sense! I used to have an allotment (complete with chickens, who constantly escaped and scoffed other people's greens!) and it's backbreaking work having to dig the wretched things over. So I think they are genius for using a tractor to help out! And yey to all the spuds. wonderful. :O)
