Great visit yesterday with two classes from The High School of Dundee to see farmer Gill Lawrie at Newton of Arbirlot. The farm is still busy harvesting potatoes and we could see them working in the distance. #theRHET #thejourneyoffood #seedsandgrains #HighSchoolOfDundee

This week's update, Rob says he is pleased with how good his potatoes are looking (photo) and the small tubers will be bulking up. Mine are about a week ahead as they are in flower and looking good too. #mccainpotatoes #scanstone #eastcoastviners #RHET #foodandfarming #potatoes

Rob's tatties are looking very healthy in the sunshine, which potatoes love! The flowers on mine that were just showing a small buds last week are nearly out. #mccain #scanstone #eastcoastviners #RHET #foodandfarming #Potatoes

Rob messaged to say his tatties have come through and mine are now uncovered. I'm still keeping an eye on the weather though, as if there are any late frosts forecast I will need to cover them! #RHET #mccainfoods #scanstone #eastcoastviners #education #foodandfarming #potatoes
