Storing Potatoes:
Do store potatoes in Hessian Sacks to allow potatoes to breathe.
Do handle potatoes with care as they bruise easily.
Do place potato sacks in a frost free, dark, dry & well ventilated area to help stop sprouting & greening.
Do keep the potatoes away from strong smells or chemicals
Do Not store potatoes in the fridge, the natural sugars will turn to starch and produce a horrible taste.
Do Not store potatoes in direct sunlight, as the potatoes will turn green and taste bitter.
