The class started with some disappointing news this morning that our Mobile Dairy Visit was cancelled due to illness but we filled our time instead with our potato harvest. The kids had a blast digging through dirt, roots and stems trying to find all the potatoes. We notices that they grew in bunches and that we really had to dig our hands into the tangled mess of roots to find all the teeny tiny potatoes. We started with 15 seed potatoes back in March and after we sorted them we had a final harvest of 193! I’m sure that there might have been a few more that we missed but there were 141 decent sized ones plus 52 teeny tiny ones that if we left for a few more weeks might have grown even more. Our largest potato was 7 cm long and our smallest was less than 1 cm. <\/p>\n
Thank you again to Agriculture in the Classrooms for allowing us the opportunity to grow our potatoes through the Spuds in Tubs classroom program. <\/p>\n
