Sweet Potato Harvest

Yesterday we harvested our first of four rows of sweet potatoes (about 100 lbs).  These Carolina Ruby sweet potatoes grow exceptionally well in central North Carolina even when we have a dry summer like this year.  We will keep them in the garage (covered and damp) for about 2 weeks to cure, at which point they will be ready to eat or store in the house for up to 6 months.

FYI, today I have a guest post at Robb Wolf’s site called The Grass is Greener, but the Weeds are Taller.  In this post, I outline some of my plans for the farm now that my days are a bit busier with the new website My Athletic Life.  Please take a peek at my guest post as well as the new site if you have time.

Thanks for reading!
