... this big (about 1/2 mile square!) field is being planted with potatoes - a month late, but they'll be fine! Little yummy red ones. "Buy Local" is good, but this is WAY too many potatoes for the locals to buy (and it is just one of many fields) so this fall watch for the red potatoes grown in the Skagit Valley and BUY, BUY, BUY! (In front are rows and rows of BIG blackberries to be hand picked for the fresh-fruit markets in late August/Spetember. Covers are pulled over later to keep birds out and slow the ripening so they get to the market later, after the normal crops.)" - RG the Tater-Tout!
