Had the opportunity to go and check out some sweet potato operations Saturday.
I had absolutely no idea how they were harvested.
It was a kind of small operation only about 2200 acres. I got to go check out a warehouse that they are cured in for 45 days and got to check out a washing and boxing operation.
After that I got to go watch the diggers. Real neat how it digs them up and the people on the wagon pull them off of the conveyer and somewhat sort them.
I followed behind for a while and picked up the straglers and got a nice fresh box of potatoes.
I also leaned why the Sweet Potato farmer won't let his daughter marry a news man. Because She's a sweet potato farmer and the news man is a commentator!!!
