  1. The Potato Crop

    Share Share Post
    My father sows one Irish acre of potatoes and he tills the ground. Potatoes are well treated they have to be manured & when the potatoes are up over the drill they have to be wed & between the drills have to scuffled with a scuffler.
    We store the potatoes in one side of the barn or else we put them in a pit.
