Potato Planting on the Frugaldom Microholding

Absolutely no reason for the photo of the ducks other than that they looked funny waddling up and down while quacking at us in the hope of escaping out of the orchard and into the garden while we were potato planting.

Potatoes are quite important in Frugaldom as they bulk out meals, are fairly cheap to plant and the return on investment can be high IF you can grow them successfully. My favourite of all time are the heritage variety known as Salad Blue, which have already been planted, but I also invested in some Shetland Blacks, another heritage variety, plus my Charlottes. These have just gone into the ground today.
