How To Grow Potatoes In A Garden

Shala & I planted potatoes a while back and didn’t really know what to expect. It was the first thing we had planted in our garden – so we were just excited to have our own thing going. When we bought our house there was a garden, full of peppers, tomatoes, eggplant, turnips and broccoli. Kind of cool, but at the same time… seemed like it was someone else’s hard work and dedication that made them. Just felt dirty eating them and watering them. Like we had stolen them and now we were holding them hostage.

We could have used you this weekend. Seriously. Whoever you are… if you have hands, feet – some amount of common sense (hell even Izzy can dig) and a brain bigger than the average pear… we could have used you. We are trying to get the garden ready to be full-fledged-top-notched-awesom-ness, so in order to do that – we had to till up the existing garden and enhance it per a master plan (produced on a piece of paper at the coffee table).

The only thing we had planted at this point is potatoes, and we had a few broccoli plants left from the fall/winter batch of goodies. So after plucking those badboys – the stage was set to till that thing up, mix in some plant friendly soil (organic of course) and lay some rock pathways to break up the massive size of the garden.
