Sweet Potato Flowers

Our sweet potato vines are blooming with beautiful purple flowers.  Sweet potatoes are related to morning glories, which is understandable when you see these flowers. The potatoes have already been harvested and these vines will die back with any winter freeze.

Back home in the She-Shed there are sweet potato slips from these plants growing in glass containers along the windowsill. These are the plants that will be planted in the spring.

    My Story


    My name is Georgia, the meaning of which is feminine for "tiller of the soil, or farmer."  I am also a pharmacist and full time mom.

    The slow work that happens on our farm is based on the belief that where things come from matters and the things made by hand are the things I cherish most.

    I consider myself Nature's Sharecropper.  With slow farming, much of what is grown or raised gets taken by nature. But the sharecropper always gets what she needs, and more.
