Potato harvest is almost here, and there is A LOT to get ready before we can dig the first potatoes!

With a broken foot, I'm getting around the farm on my new "wheelchair" — the four wheeler — while the crew works on getting the potato harvester, windrower, trucks, belts, chains, and everything else ready to go. We run into a few problems along the way, including a bad chain, the wrong-size belt, and a few parts that need to be picked up in town.

We also get the potato cellars ready, bring in a generator, start repairing one of our older cellars, and water the field ahead of harvest so we don't bring a ton of dry dirt into the cellar.

We're planning to start potato harvest in just a few days, and I'm going to do my best to film as much of the harvest as possible. After a tough growing season with smoke, heat, and lower yields across Idaho, we're anxious to see what is actually underneath the ground.

Potato harvest is officially about to begin!

Thanks for watching and following along with the farm. Don't forget to subscribe so you don't miss the potato harvest series!
