In this episode we finally harvest our Yacon. Yacon is a root crop native to South America and has many uses and benefits. With the right techniques this plant can be grown in colder climates and I show you the results! Thanks for watching!

#yacon #harvest #strawbalegardening
Great information. Never heard of Yacon. I hope they make it through the winter for you. How much are you charging for them?
Great talking to you. I hope you have a great week!
I feel your pain! Nothing worse then watching our gardens die off from a hard freeze. That was a good Yacon harvest ya got there! Not make ya fart!! LOL.. The CityStead done a shout out for ya and when I seen you straw bale garden over there I had to sign up. I do a lot of bale gardening over here as well. Love how they grow some awesome veggies!
RIP not so hardy plants….
Really good update look forward to more in 2019
Thanks. I have to check out the rest of your videos, I’ve been thinking about experimenting with bales!
Awesome video! Our yacons did fine with the few mild frosts (-3C or 26F) we've had, same all the other tubers we've got going on our garden like oca, mashua etc. Our entire garden is well insulated with a thick layer of wood chips though.
You just convinced me to grow some yacon. I live in NE TX. I'm excited to try it out!
Thank you for sharing! How was your yacon harvest in 2019 and 2020?
I'll try to grow them for the first time this year and I hope 3 things: That the plants grow here in the middle of Germany – despite the weather we have here this year -; that I'll get some tubers and enough rhizomes to grow it next year again; and that they doesn't produce as much gas as the "fartichokes"… 😉
