Organic Potatoes: Sowing
Five varieties, one old-fashioned planting plan and plenty of Kildare rain.
After completing conversion to a certified organic farm, Rathmuck began growing more produce for its own shop—including potatoes, apple juice, pumpkins and porridge oats.
Vitabella, Levante, Carolus, Connect and Alouette seed potatoes were planted. The plants emerged within weeks and were weeded by hand, without chemical fertilisers or pesticides.
