[Ag-eq] Potatoes

[Kendra. Schaber]

Hi all! 
I agree with Dave. However, if you have a big freezer and an open Saturday, you could shred them up and freeze them so that on Sunday, you could make hash browns. Another idea is to cut them up into strips and freeze them to later make French fries. That's if you don't have a good storage place to store them but don't want to use them right off the bat. Good luck!!!

I think our unusually cool summer helped. And, as a bonus, I put lots of compost and leaves around the potatoes to keep the soil loose, and now I have really nice soil to put in a fall crop.  I put in some lettuce in one spot, and I'll put carrots or turnips in another.
> Google says to store potatoes in "a cool, dark, well-ventilated place".  I'm not sure where that might be.  The basement's not hot, but not particularly cool.  Google says the fridge isn't the best, but it may be the best I have. Wish I had a root cellar.
