So I have this piece of my property that is probably about a third of an acre. Its is the piece of my property that in the back closest to the river! Several times a year, depending on the rain, moon and winds it may flood with the brackish water from the river. So needless to say, I have never even attempted to grow anything there. The soil is very sandy and just looks lifeless! Well my friends i am on a mission to change that forever. I Have decided to experiment with sweet potatoes and see if their expansive vine ground cover and deep tapping tuber roots will help create a fertile soil full of nutrients and life. Keep checking in and follow me here to catch all the action and updates on the Hewett Homestead!
