potatoe harvest


the potatoes have been growing and we enjoyed to observe thea's bucket. time has come now to bring the "big" harvest in, so we dug them up yesterday. and o what a wonderful surprise, there were a good handful new potatoes, still "mama" potato was there too. an interesting observation by thea. it has been a waiting and learning experience for her. not pulling and not digging, but waiting and just observing the plants.
we did it and today for lunch we cooked thea's potatoes, all of us were allowed to have some and we all praised them and thea's generosity to share with us.

the experiment was successful and maybe we will do jerusalem artichoke next season...
