Urgent Evoke

A crash course in changing the world.

In my community, it's time to plant potatoes. Potatoes are especially easy to grow in containers and I've passed along instructions to a couple of my friends. Be sure to get good seed potatoes and try different varieties.

Hi Kath, which community are you from? The only place I know of where potatoes are really important is Norway :) Why is this the time to plant them?

Hi--I'm in the middle of the US. Potatoes like cool weather, so it's a good idea to get them in the ground early so that they produce before the hot summer gets here! Potatoes are native to South America and are vital to the people in the Andes. There are thousands of varieties! Check out the photo and information here:
