some of you may have seen in the events section of the cultivator that we are planing to grow some potatos to harvest at the wheeley working weekend this year. well last week it was final dry enough to get on the field and do some planting. here are a couple of photos to wet your appetite and there will hopefully be some more photos in the cultivator once i get round to writing an article to go with it.

There maris piper. We left it a bit late to buy the sets and so were limited on choice.

Hi all. I called in at the farm at Weeley this morning and all the spuds are up and looking good.
A few weeds but I am sure that Robert and the Trusty will soon be there and will be having a weed out.
Or maybe a hand hoe job.
Also the track for the Weeley wander has been extended a bit to include the fishing lakes and
the orchard below the lakes.
See you all in September.
