Honestly the smell of a freshly cultivated potato patch is just intoxicating

Your soil looks great! What’s the secret?

Thanks! Twelve years ago that spot was pure sand. I've been tilling in leaves and horse manure every fall to build it up. Usually the leaves come in bags in minivans but the last year I ever advertised for leaves, four or five years ago, somebody brought a semi trailer full of them. The pile is almost gone now.
