TippyToe said:I did this one year in tall boxes. It was ugly but sort of worked... I'm in Washington so the rain made mush of the boxes toward the end of the season. This year I'm trying it in burlap coffee bags

@TippyToe -- Welcome to All Things Plants, Patrice! I actually think that the fact the boxes were kind of decomposing is the beauty of using them, especially in the hugelkultur bed... box falls apart, potatoes are right there to harvest, everything just kind of becomes part of the bed (well, in my little fantasy world, anyway! )

edited to say -- Nell, I hope it really does work out that way for you!!
