Warren Wilson Students Plant Potatoes

On April 3rd, Steve Norris, who teaches at Warren Wilson and who is also on the board of The Lord's Acre, brought the enthusiasm of some of his students to help us plant potatoes. Here students cut Kennebec and Red Pontiac seed potatoes into walnut-size pieces, each containing at least one 'eye'. Then they were dusted wih sulfur powder to prevent disease while sitting in the cool, spring soil.
