Kenaste Farm Family Offers Early Harvest of Potatoes The Kenaste farm family in Tartu is continuing its practice of planting potatoes in underground tunnels at the beginning of the season, allowing for the availability of fresh potatoes as late as the end of May. Ilona Jaanikesing, owner of the farm, began this process several years ago and continues to cultivate early varieties. Despite receiving criticism on social media regarding the timing of the harvest, Jaanikesing maintains that the operation is not inherently risky. The farm utilizes established tunnel systems to regulate temperature and extend the growing period for the potatoes. This unique approach allows consumers in Tartu and beyond to enjoy potatoes that have not been stored for extended periods, offering a fresher taste and texture. Jaanikesing’s commitment to this method has garnered attention, sparking debate about traditional versus innovative agricultural practices. The farm’s success demonstrates a potential pathway for extending the availability of locally grown potatoes. Further details regarding the specific techniques employed at the Kenaste farm are not available at this time.
