Life from the back of the pack (potato picking)

One of the things we love about being members of Willows Farm is going to the various seasonal events they run, soon we will be picking pumpkins but for the last month we have had opportunity to go and dig up potatoes which we then get to take home.
Today was our second trip to the potato field and the girls loved it - the magic moment when the fork lifts this straggly half dead plant and reveals the potatoe crop underneath.
So with buckets overflowing we trek back to transfer our haul into bags for the trip home.
Now just looking forward to cooking them up for Nanny and Grandad and Aunty Carol on Monday!
