Here, Justin is pulling the IH Chisel with
our green 1967 92-HP Oliver 1850 Diesel tractor. Years ago Caleb and Justin
completely re-built this tractor from the tires up and it still runs like a
top! A heavy home-made drag is pulled behind
the Chisel Plow. This drag is made from
6-inch metal well casing crammed chock-full for extra weight with worn-out inch-thick
‘grader blades’ from one of the Bridgewater Town snowplows. In most cases, after making just a single pass
with the Chisel and drag, the ground is all set to be planted with our IH 510
Grain Drill. While Justin prepares the
field seen in this picture, Jim was out planting Fall grain on another Potato field
that Justin had just finished chiseling.
And so, with Potato Harvest now behind us
we have our Organic Seed Potatoes stored safely away and all inventories are
now logged in. In our online Webstore,
we have now fully updated availability of all Organic
Maine Certified Seed Potatoes in their respective package
sizes.
With the moderate yields common in Maine
this year thanks for our wet weather, NOW is the best
time to order your Seed Potatoes. The very best
selection of the year is
available for the picking right now!
There is no doubt we will sell out of some popular varieties earlier
than normal this year. So, this is the
year to not tarry on ordering!
Organic
Garlic Seed will ship out beginning next week. Soon after that, we’ll begin shipping out
early orders of Organic Seed Potatoes.
Remember, you can order now and we’ll be happy to hold your order and ship
it whenever you want it during the Fall, Winter or Spring.
We hope your harvests are going great!
Thanks for all your kindness and wonderful support!
