Harvesting Potatoes

In early October, Noreen and children from many different classrooms went to work harvesting the potatoes!
The potatoes had been planted in stacks of car tires, which made it easy to harvest them. First, Noreen unstacked the car tires, and then the children dug through the soil for all the potatoes. After about 15 minutes, all of the potatoes were in a bucket, ready to be washed, and turned into Latkes!

Postscript - this week, the Giraffes made the first Latkes of the season, using the potatoes seen in these pictures!
