Sometimes "Craft Tuesday" comes without a plan. That is what happen this time. Emily & I were visiting & the kids were simply playing with cousins. I'm sure Neighbor Jeff didn't know what he was getting into when he asked Jake if he wanted to pick a few tomatoes for me. Jake was delighted & so was everyone else.
All of the kids headed over to Jeff's. He had 5 kids in his 4 x 8 foot garden. Jeff is single & doesn't have any kids so he doesn't really need more than that, but also just enjoys gardening. I had to go over and monitor. Jeff was so good with them. They picked cherry tomatoes & dug for potatoes. Jeff taught them how potatoes grow & then let them each take a purple potato home. They were quite tickled with the experience & quite frankly so were Emily & I.

Love the post and what a good experience for them. Everyone needs to know how to pick potatoes. I am 34 and still do not know how to tell a potato plant from a weed. I remember (a long time ago) digging up the potato plants thinking that they were weeds.
