Potager Gardens

year 2 my hillside garden...

13 years ago

Year 2 for my hillside garden - The potatoes bed (3.5" x 7") that looked spent the wife and I harvested on the morning of July 4th. It yielded about 20lbs of Yukon Gold potatoes..very early with this crazy warm weather. I planted the bed with carrots that Im sure will require some plastic and tunnels in Sept/Oct to finish up..

Love to Garden..

What great looking potatoes! I've read that carrots are supposed to taste extra sweet if they freeze in the ground. Maybe you'll find out.
