You may have seen this item in our shed at the Maple Lane Complex, where there are a number of items on display showing how early local farmers worked the land.

The green item on the left is a potato digger. Potatoes grow deep in the ground and it is an arduous job working to extract them. This was the first elevated potato digger used on Eastern Long Island. G. Fletcher Downs used it on his Bayview Farm in the early 1900s. Gift of Alfred Dart.

The item on the right is a potato sorter, used on the Leslie Wells farm and donated by Harold Evans, Sr.
