Sweet potatoes here we come

So last year we thought we had lost our minds planting 1,000 sweet potato slips. Well, this year we decided to quadruple that. Yes, that's right, we'll be planting 4,000 slips next week! We are quite looking forward to using a new implement that we bought this winter as opposed to crawling on our hands and knees to plant like last summer. It's an old 2-person tobacco setter. Stay tuned for pics/videos.
