Wow that is very impressive. Aren't potato plants poisonous for the chooks?

Happy blogoversary!

Hi Dorian
Yes they are supposed to be that's why they are growing in a fenced off area...the chooks will be moving to a new area very soon...

Hi Teena
I'd completely forgotten about my 2nd Blogoversary thanks for the reminder! :)

How many did you say you are feeding?

Scarecrow said...

Ha Cosmic!
We have a stall at a local market with seedlings and herbs for sale (Doc's taking some wooden toys next week).
The organisers are keen for us to sell surplus produce too.

That is of course if/when it all grows!

Hi

Always interesting to see what you are growing on your patch - I bet the surplus is snatched up off the market stall. Best wishes for a good growing season!
