I always know fall is coming when Dad chops off the potato tops! He does this to allow the potatoes to mature, so they are ready for long term storage.

My dad and the crew are busy baling and hauling straw off the fields. What a load!

Blessed with good weather, the combining of the Barley is now done.

Today we harvested and packed the first spuds of our 2013 crop. Mmmmm, nothing beats the taste of those early potatoes!

Despite the fact that the weather wasn’t very cooperative the past few weeks, the new eco-spud crop looks promising. All we need now is tons of sunshine.
