My husband bought 50# of Kennebec seed potatoes. No kidding. When he came

I hope your farmer friend is not affected by the California water shortages I just read about. California agriculture uses about eighty percent of the state's water but the urban areas are using their political muscle to get more than their twenty percent. In what looks like maybe the third year of inadequate snowpack, the politics will be reheating.
