It's time to get the potatoes in the ground. Lance is out today with his Massey Ferguson Petrol 135 with Disc Plough to prepare the ground for planting potatoes with the Massey Ferguson 718 Automatic Potato Planter. In today's video Lance also uses his Massey Ferguson 5445 with the Hooper Rototiller and the Massey Ferguson Potato Ridger. It's been extremely challenging to get the potatoes in the ground due to the unfortunate weeks of wet weather. It's great to have them in the ground now and hopefully we'll get another bumper crop this year.

We plant our potatoes using organic principals and sell them to our local community as well as storing them for our family to help us reach our self sufficiency goals.

As always, thanks for watching and we'll see you on the next one.
Lance and Claire

Hi, We’re Lance and Claire Mullin. We have five amazing kids and as a family we are trying to live a slow, self-sufficient lifestyle, growing much of our own food off our small farm and homestead.

We have owned our small dairy farm in Taranaki, New Zealand for 8 years. Our YouTube channel documents the start of our journey to transform our farm with regenerative practices.

We look forward to sharing our journey with you as we take our next steps into regenerative agriculture and our food growing endeavors. We'd love it if you subscribed to our channel, liked our videos and leave us a comment.
