Potatoes are an often overlooked addition to any backyard garden. Packed with nutrients, they are versatile in the kitchen and long storing. There are few things in life that are tastier than freshly dug potatoes, mashed, fried, or baked for your evening dinner. And in the dead of winter potatoes are one of the few garden crops that you can still eat fresh! And the great thing about growing your own potatoes is you can take advantage of over 100 tasty varieties. You will no longer be limited by the 5 or so different varieties grown commercially. Homegrown potatoes come in every shape, color, and size.
