Many years ago my father in law's dad found a World War II bullet that was still live, which he had disposed of safely! What a great question. Thanks for visiting. Sara from farmingfriends Hi Topveg,

Happy days!

The variety we are currently growing are hermes and these potatoes will be made into a well known brand of potatoes! Thanks for visiting and commenting. Sara @ farmingfriends Hi Soilman,

I do it on a tiny scale, and by the time I've got all the spuds bagged I've lost the will to live. What varieties do you grow, Sara? This must be the world’s most boring job. I do it on a tiny scale, and by the time I’ve got all the spuds bagged I’ve lost the will to live.
What varieties do you grow, Sara?
