Potato Harvest in South Rexburg

These are pictures from Lee Sutton's Potato Farm in South Rexburg



It was very interesting to see how potatoes are harvested



They dig them up first, then another machine comes along and put the potatoes
in a pile, then another machine comes along and picks them up and
puts them on the truck.

The truck then takes them to the potato storage building

As the truck unloads the potatoes workers pull out any stalks or weeds

The potatoes are then piled up in the storage building until sold.
This building is HUGE! He has several huge buildings and when harvest is
over all the buildings are full of potatoes. It is temperature controlled.
Thanks Lee for letting us see how it is all done.
