How to store potatoes

You have harvested the potatoes, now how do you store them?

Go down to the local feed store, buy a few bushel baskets and some hay. Sometimes feed stores will sell a bag of hay instead of a full bail.

Put a layer of hay at the bottom of the bushel, layer of potatoes, layer of hay, layer of potatoes, layer of hay,,, until the bushel is full.
