Maris Piper potatoes are a favorite in the British Isles. We grew them instead of Kerr's Pink which we had in other years, they are popular in Ireland. Both are well regarded for making roasted potatoes or mashed potatoes. Unfortunately they developed a scab this year from something in the soil. We peeled ours and they cooked up just fine.
The seeds we put in the tunnel last week have germinated and are up and growing! We are looking forward to fall salads and greens. Tonight we seeded spinach, turnips, radish and lettuce outdoors. The Farmers Almanac says that we will have a warm fall so we hope they are right!
One more week of the summer subscriptions!
