Ok, serious question- Where can I buy 50 pound bags of farm grown potatoes locally? Normally my family gets them from Shaul’s in Middleburg/Fultonville/whatever that little town is but their fields and crops were ruined by the hurricane and floods. Is there anywhere else within an hour of here that has potatoes? Not looking to go to a grocery store, want to get them from a farm. ---

We have our own ‘farm’, but I don’t think we’d be able to give you that many. We have enough of most vegetables and fruits for our family and for my sisters and brothers families. I can ask if they’d be interested in selling some though. ---

Normally we get atleast two 50 pound bags of them and theyre alot cheaper than they are in grocery stores. These potatoes are normally huge too, much bigger than the ones put out in grocery stores. ---

Actually I got 100 pounds. Thats enough to last thru most of the winter. We eat potatoes in one form or another quite a bit for dinner. ---
