The McCullough potato operation is an all natural enterprise
and not just for altruistic reasons since quality has gotten better and better since going
native. Puh-leeze don’t use the term “organic” around Jim
McCullough. The word organic has
been so misused, abused and downright lied about that it's nearly
useless. We'll go with natural.
Jim controls every step of his operation. Unlike some farmers, Jim plants, fertilizes,
harvests and warehouses his own potatoes.
His team literally invent and
build equipment to do jobs that others farm out. And every decision to keep these big jobs in house has paid off with improved quality
and lower costs. Jim claims he wasn't a
school learning kind of guy but you could go to school on his business savvy
and intuition.
The top three images have little to do with the potato story but the furrowed fourth is one of Jim McCullough's fields being planted. The abandoned farm house that is about to be leveled and the grain
bins, those aesthetic corrugated cylinders, are not potato icons though
they do speak to farming generally. And,
of course, since they're all platinum toned black and white they must be serious photographs.
The San Luis Valley has been described as pancake flat. Uh huh.

This type of photography is obviously your love and it definitely is your forte, Steve. The long, surface shots which sandwich the other two, are particularly dramatic. Love the clouds hovering over the storage tanks.
Nicely done!
Thanks Daryl.
