They call them potato cellars. The above ground ones. Grain and spuds. Grain and spuds. Ship both all winter. If it got to -15 or warmer we shipped. Bulk. 1000 pounds per inch into refrigerated trucks (those units heat as well as chill). I was the only white guy working on a farm in the valley who wasn’t an old drunk looking for a warm shop to hang around in.
no shit??? where'd you live, Alamosa? Del Norte?
Lived in Del Norte. I loved it.
del norte is getting big time!. they have a brewery thats not too bad and a distillery is coming this summer ( i think) .
There was nothing in 1981. When they built a cafe on the east end it was the thing. Then a guy calling himself Catfish opened a tattoo shop across the highway. Lol.
we dont go thru it much but i think Monte Vista is a cool little town too.
within a few minutes of me, there used to be old potato beds that were tended by german ww2 prisoners of war. potatos are one thing that really does great for me @ 9000 ft
i've seen peeps do the same thing with old tires. keep adding a tire and dirt in the middle as they grow up.
My buddy does it that way. I didn't want a bunch of tires around. And I think the rubbermaid is food grade but I don't remember. It works good I put rows in.......not as many as that one year lol
i agree. i got rid of all my tires awhile ago too. and i'm not sure if tires would leach crap but i wouldn't take the chance.
