Guests are welcome!
This season we’re taking on a true challenge—one that will be new to everyone in the club, including our most experienced gardeners. We’ll provide seed potatoes and a grow bag. Participants will take them home, add potting medium, and grow their potatoes independently over the season.
We will have some sources with instructions and guidelines, but this is new to everyone. Potatoes are supposedly very easy to grow, and there is only one way to find out!
Growing potatoes in a bag this size doesn’t require a garden bed. A sunny patio, deck, or south-facing balcony is more than enough space to give it a try. For reference - they are a bit bigger than a water cooler bottle - smaller than a side table.
The spirit of this challenge is simple: try something unfamiliar, see what happens, and compare results along the way. You can bring the best of your potatoes to be judged at our September meeting and we will give a fun prize to the biggest harvest!
Guests are welcome to try, but only members can enter them for an award or prize.
