I thought some of you would be interested in some pictures of preparing the soil for Jersey Royals.

Hello Beryl

Yes, errrrr! sorry I've just realised that and tried to get rid of my posting but I am too late.

Still, believe me, the pictures are great they show a Ferguson tractor with a winch at the top of a steep south facing field, winching a old horse plough up to turn over the ground.

Hi Barney,

Yes, I believe they are all grown on the hill-side.
Quite an achievement. I don't suppose the average consumer knows what goes into producing one of the finest early spuds.

Beryl.
