Millions of Potatoes… Then They ALL Avalanched!

Video: Millions of Potatoes… Then They ALL Avalanched!

We’re back in the potato cellar today scooping out the rest of the pile—and things got interesting fast.

Between frozen valves, a breakdown on the scooper, and trying to keep trucks moving, it turned into one of those real farming days where nothing goes exactly as planned. We even had to get creative with some quick fixes just to keep going.

Once we got rolling again, we started pulling vents, triggering some pretty satisfying potato avalanches, and making a big dent in the pile. There’s still a lot left to go, but we’re getting closer every load.

Also talked a bit about why we decided to turn off channel memberships and what’s next for the channel moving forward.

Appreciate all the support—you guys are the reason we get to do this every day.
