Take a tour of the storage building with us. Shane explains the ins and outs of the K-span storage building and the plenum. Flashlight used in our video www.olightstore.com/s/TB77Y0
I had no idea there were so many critical bits of infrastructure needed to protect your potato crop while in storage, thanks for the tour and, looking forward to the corn crop! Great job, as usual with content, quality, production and especially presentation. Bells Farming episodes are a must-see every week! Cheers.
Agree - very interesting to see the infrastructure that keeps potatoes viable in storage. One thing I can’t help mentioning is there is no ‘t’ in ‘plenum’… it’s a pretty common term in automotive and HVAC circles. Not making fun, but my grandma was a stickler for grammar - I can’t help it.
I grew up in Idaho on a potato, onion, sugar beets, mint farm. Now in my late 40’s I love this channel because it brings back a great childhood ❤ Another Great Video 👍 Great content, keep up the great work!
Thank you! You have been so supportive! It’s fun for me when I can remember the names( screen names) of the people who really enjoy the channel and leave us great comments. You are the reason this is so enjoyable! Thank you again!
I'm so hooked on these videos now especially being a 57 year old guy who has many family members up in the Fort Kent area and had seen these barns and storage building growing up and driving up from Conn all my life. Most of those kind of barns are so old and collapsing now. Hearing some of the stores from my parents and they would shut down school for two weeks and pick potatoes to me that is crazy but that is the life up there. Absolutely love how you broke down the video how they stay fresh because I know when I buy a bag and leave it on the floor for a week or two I'm starting my own farm...hahaha Thank u again and I know I only been a fan for 2 months but I'm loving it!
Awesome! I’m so glad you found the video informative and entertaining! I like the “floor farm” that’s a good one. I’ll be honest I start many my self hahah. Thank you very much for the support and leaving me comments. Are you still in the area? I have never been that far north in Maine yet. Thank you!
Unless you've worked on a farm or at least visited one, most people don't understand how much work goes into it. Not just anyone can do it. I lived on a little family garden farm just for us canning and freezing. To do things at that scale, it's incredible. Thank you so much for this gem. I'll watch your other vids too. Thank you and all of the other farmers out there around the world for feeding us and keeping us healthy! 😀
That structure and it’s components and systems, looks lIke a well engineered high tech end result of a combination of years of trial and error, married to a modern HVAC digital control system, that maximizes economy, product quality and shelf life. Shane’s praise of the concrete work in there is very well justified, very few contractors could pull off that amount of grade changes and drainage. Not to mention on the video it looked like very little cracking. It was a surprise for me to see a such a technologically advanced multi-use facility on a generational family farm. Thanks, great video, again!
That’s a pretty high tech root cellar. Since watching your channel, I never look at a bag of potatoes or french fries the same way. Thanks for sharing. 👍
Wow. That is an awesome set up. It helps me understand the process of potato storage. Planning on building a small potato storage build, later this spring. Thank you for the storage info.
Hi Molly congratulations on having over 16K in a short time that’s awesome 👏… Really informative video so much more than going out to the garden and digging up a few potatoes 🥔…. Love your hour glass figure… I can watch your videos all day 😊
Thank for sharing this incredible video, I always learn so much from your videos and I always look forward to each video. Will you please thank Shane for taking the time to explain everything.
Once again, this was a fascinating video. Your operation is a very safictcated scientific process. Potatoes are one of my favorite foods, and every time I watch one of the videos explaining the potato farming operations, I gain a little more appreciation one of the foods I love the most. Thank you very much for sharing this was a great video. 😊
This was really cool! I have always wondered about the buildings but, living in a ginormous city, I've never been able to see how they work. Thanks so much!
❤ I found your video very interesting. Thanks for sharing. Would have never known how the potatoes are stored and kept Fresh. As always you guys are amazing Hardworking people ❤.Thank you for being so awesome ❤. I am sure all of this is Not easy. Bless you and your family and staff.Be safe and know that we care about you ❤.🇺🇸
One more time, Auburn Maine’s best people are in this video! Never crossed anyone at Bell’s that was not good people. Hard working crew growing great potatoes and Maines best corn! Auburn proud!
This was very interesting video Molly I knew that potatoes needed to be kept cold with air flow but never really understood how it was done thank you for sharing this information.
Excellent video guys. In my head i was wondering how you maximize the shelf life of the potatoes. The videos give me more of an insight of the inner works of your potato business. Always thank you for sharing, as today i learn something new. Take care and i always enjoy your posts Molly
Great video! This is very interesting. Of all the technology advancements, this building is simple, rough cut, and working exactly as intended. It has probably been this way for decades. Only the control panel suggests newer advancements. But, same physics as decades ago - cold air, humidity, fans for pushing air, air movement from higher pressure to lower pressure. I presume the culverts have been modified with holes drilled in three positions around the unit. Tried and true - it works! P.S. Been carrying O-light i5T-EOS in my pocket for the last two years. I do not know how lived without it! I use it many times each week. I acted on recommendation from Andy, FF&F. I've given several as gifts.
Thank you for leaving this comment! All very true. I’m glad you like the video! The o light to great. I am going to be carrying it a lot now that I have one. I need a head lamp one next! Thank you again for watching!
Great channel, very interesting...subscribed. You guys are great, and I love potatoes, so I appreciate the work you do very much...thank you! Come see us in FL when you get too cold!
That’s a great tour of your potato operation. I went to the grocery store and bought potatoes today. Most of my had brown spots in them. I wish I had some good potatoes from Maine.
Thank you buying potatoes anyways. They might have not looked awesome, but they probably still taste alright. Thank you for watching our channel, we appreciate the support. Sorry you can’t get our taters where you are.
This was fascinating, thanks for taking the time for a tour. I work on variable frequency drives (almost exclusively Danfoss brand) for a living, so it was interesting to see them implemented into your operation. I also have seen them on some other channels videos where they use them for the pump system on field irrigation pivots.
@@BellsFarming I'd be interested in seeing how else they are used, perhaps during another excellent tour. I am not familiar with the agricultural use cases as I deal primarily in commercial building HVAC systems with a few residential applications such as front yard water features. Keep up the great content, I look forward to each new video you put out.
Yes , we use a lot of VFD s, we do have a large irrigation pump that uses a big one ( like 60 hp). But they are utilized a lot for conveyor speed adjustment and also as phase converters( we only have single phase power) . I’ll remember to point them out in other videos. Thanks for watching!
@@shanebell9589 That's great to hear! They are great for many purposes and can save a lot in energy costs. I typically work on anywhere between 1½hp and 300hp 3phase 480v drives used for exhaust fans, supply and return fans and cooling/heating pumps with some cooling tower fans mixed in that use the same media that your humidifier uses to cool condenser water coming out of a chiller plant. Thanks for taking the time to reply and I will look out for your future mentions of your specific use cases.
Again a great tour of how well you both now your business and take pride in providing the consumer with good product at same time making a profit. Shane and Molly you are a busy couple!!Do you have children to tend to also? That is more work and more help down the road. Thanks for all of your knowledge. 😁👍
Thank you very much for watching us! Shane has been doing this since he was a child! He really knows and loves this farm. We do not have any children, I am a little old to start now! Hahah I just have fur babies.
When I first started watching I wondered many things. How do they control moisture, what humidity is it that keeps the potatoes from drying out yet low enough to keep bacterial growth in check. My neighbor, Potato King, has an underground facility to store their potatoes and onions and it isn't as simple as one might think to keep the produce usable. Thanks for the tour!
Been watching your vids a couple months now, very interesting. Made the 15 hr drive from WV yesterday to Caribou to snowmobile this week. Looked up Buck construction to see where it is up here, we rode through Mapleton today. Now I know what a Mainer means when they say the county. I own a body shop and your air unit has a lot of similarities to my spray booth
Really interesting, thanks for the tour! I grow my own spuds and store them in a garden cellar I built. Lots of humidity and it never freezes in there in winter. The spuds seem to keep really well.
@@BellsFarming Tiny, 7' by 3'. I can get all my spuds and root veg in there. I had to build a big retaining wall out of natural rocks and I incorporated the cellar into the wall so it's a really nice feature and it works!
Very interesting you guys thanks for sharing this video. I know a little about the ventilation systems I work up in the county over in Easton to convert a sugar beat silo over to store oats. We stayed in Presque Isle and that's where I met my wife she was a County girl who used to work on the harvesters when she was young.
I loved that vlog loads, it was so informative - I never knew so much went in to spud storage. Molly you such a do it all go getter with a super can do attitude - i love you to bits. Shane is such a good man but looks so serious lol. I have enjoyed and look forward to your working vlogs as farmers they are great, I come from animal small holding family stock myself long ago, my great grandad used to work on arable farming as a hired hand i guess.
Thank you very much for watching us! Yeah I am trying to get Shane warmed up to the camera more. He actually is not so serious. I’m glad we can provide you with a little knowledge and entertainment 💚
Molly Shane You know as an engineer .Myself knowing many things and many subjects in my field,.. never never knew there was so much Engineering in place to make potatoes last as long as they do... wow thanks for the school lesson. that was awesome!! take care stay safe have fun it is what life is about.
Ok, it looks like you’re going to answer all my questions about how the sweet corn gets to my table. I knew my local farmers picked it and sold it at their stand but always wondered about bulk sweet corn. I’m glad I stumbled upon your channel.😄
@@BellsFarming Frankly when I first saw your channel I thought it would be a one off. How interesting could potato growing be, put them in dirt then pull them out of dirt. 😂😂😂 Now you imply you grow sweet corn on a large scale. I can’t wait to see how that works. All the channels I watch grow corn for live stock or Ethanol.
@@jeffreyshier9021 hey thanks for being honest! Sweet corn! Yes we grow as many acres of sweet corn as we do potatoes for the most part. It is a pretty cool operation. Yeah I don’t think there are many sweet corn farmers on you tube that don’t use migrant worker to hand pick in the field. I think you guys will enjoy seeing that whole process.
Thanks for the tour, a lot of engineering and thoughtful design goes into it. Poo construction could easily ruin the final product. Glad to hear you were pleased with the contractor and the outcome. Sounds like the contractor was from Aroostook County (did I hear "from the County" correctly?).
I had no idea there were so many critical bits of infrastructure needed to protect your potato crop while in storage, thanks for the tour and, looking forward to the corn crop! Great job, as usual with content, quality, production and especially presentation. Bells Farming episodes are a must-see every week! Cheers.
Awesome! Thank you so much for the compliment! I’m really glad you enjoy our videos. 💚💚
I think Molly has...LOTS OF FANS! 😂😊
I like the way Shane explains things. He doesn't drag it on he gets to the point and moves on. Interesting video Molly.
Thank you!
Yes Shane is a man of few words. Hehe. Thanks so much for the tour. Looking forward to the videos over the next year!
Agree - very interesting to see the infrastructure that keeps potatoes viable in storage. One thing I can’t help mentioning is there is no ‘t’ in ‘plenum’… it’s a pretty common term in automotive and HVAC circles. Not making fun, but my grandma was a stickler for grammar - I can’t help it.
I grew up in Idaho on a potato, onion, sugar beets, mint farm. Now in my late 40’s I love this channel because it brings back a great childhood ❤

Holy cow! That’s a lot of potatoes just in that one storage shed. And the culvert explanation. Thanks for the tour Molly.
You are very welcome!
Very informative Molly and Shane. So much involved in harvesting and storage. Well done.
ooh Potato Sunday school, let me go put on my Sunday best!
That’s great!
Thanks for the walkthrough. Can't wait to see the corn side of the farm!
It’s great! I’m very excited to show it too!
I truly feel like I learned something new today. Thank you for going through that explaination of how the potatoes are stored.
Thanks for watching!
Love these potatoe tours!! Especially the tour guide, very hot! 😊
Thank you!
Thanks, I just got a haircut too.
I like the intro. You introduced yourself and told new people what you do.❤
Yes, I really need to get better at that part. Still a newbie here. Haha
MORE Shane.... YAHOO. Great to see you both doing the clips and showing what you do. It's great to hear both of you sharing the great world of yours.
I’ll get him in there more. :) he is so full of knowledge.
Yes, Shane is a man of little words. However the new building and camping in the woods he has spoken. It would be nice to hear his life!,
I'm glad you explained that Shane was using a laser pointer, because I kept thinking it was a fire fly flying around 😅 now I feel so dumb!
I'm so hooked on these videos now especially being a 57 year old guy who has many family members up in the Fort Kent area and had seen these barns and storage building growing up and driving up from Conn all my life.

Thank you! It was a very good investment to the farm! We have had that building 11 years.
Cool tour, Carol and I had to stop transplanting to watch this one. Great video, loved the camping also. This is our first day of transplanting.
We will have to make it up your way , this year for sure !!
Hey guys! I need to get caught up on your latest videos! Miss you guys. I’m excited to see what you have been up to!
A lot goes into potatoes and storing them. Thank you for taking the time to show us.
You are welcome
Thank you Molly and Shane. The science of potato storage is new to me. You did a great job explaining. 👍
Thank you! We got Shane to talk!
That is really neat thanks for showing that.
I enjoyed Shane’s explanations of the air temperature control system. I’m familiar with most of the equipment myself.
Yeah I got him to do a lot of talking in this video!
It is so hard for me not to enjoy an episode with you in it.
Good Morning Folks, Very interesting tour, thanks so much. Have a Great Day. 😊
Your videos are very educational! Never knew what it took to care for potatoes. Awesome job!
Thanks for the tour.
Great choice for the thumbnail. Thank You.
Thanks for the tour , lot more involved than I thought.
Wow that’s a lot of set up! Very neat and clean!!! Thanks for sharing!
Very informative Shane and hot ta Molly. Thanks for sharing.
Glad to see Shane explaining more... You both make a GREAT team explaining this. Very interesting information !
Thank you! He does do a good job. I will try and get him talking more. He is a wealth of knowledge!
Very interesting how the building works!!
Thanks for the tour loved it!
Thanks , this was very informative on how y’all story your potatoes ,
That’s a pretty high tech root cellar. Since watching your channel, I never look at a bag of potatoes or french fries the same way. Thanks for sharing. 👍
That’s great! I’m glad we could open your eyes to the world of potatoes! Thank you very much for watching.
Thanks for the tour and the info!
Love your content. Keep up the good work. Glad you got Shane to talk on one of your videos.

This was really interesting. Thanks to you and Shane for the tour and explanation.
Thank you for watching!
Great video who would have thought all that went into caring for potatoes. Can't wait to see the planting that be interesting. Thanks for the tour. ❤
Thank you for watching! I’m excited to show you guys everything.
You have the greatest potatoes I've ever seen....
And still so firm !
Great information, well presented. I love the logo on the first screen. A good new addition.
Thank you!
Great explanation. That concrete work looks spectacular.
Thank you for watching!
Thanks for the tour and explanation of your potato storage operation Molly and Shane. Good job!
Thank you!
Great video! Very interesting information.

In the words of the great Cosmo Kramer. "That's a lot of Potatoes"
Still can’t believe how many potatoes you’ve harvested, as a city folk all I can say is impressive!
This was really cool! I have always wondered about the buildings but, living in a ginormous city, I've never been able to see how they work. Thanks so much!
Awesome I’m glad you enjoyed! Thank you for watching.
You two are AWSOME Great videos. Very interesting
Thank you very much!
Thanks for the tour. Just a bit more than dumping the potatoes in a pile! Makes me appreciate all that goes on to put a meal on my plate. Good job!
Thank you.
Very good video! Good information to know! Thank you
Love you videos! Very informative and interesting. Keep up the good work.
Thank you larry

Thank you so much!
never done any farming besides a home garden... and i have trouble making that work most the time... this blows my mind!
Interesting, thanks for the tour.
That was an extremely informative video! The company I work for manufactures the culverts and I always wondered how the system worked.
Oh cool! Well this is our application! Thanks for watching.

Awsum building! Love how you have it set up..I help build a large potato storage in wny like 20 years ago.. they grow potatoes for chips..
Thank you!
Great video! This is very interesting. Of all the technology advancements, this building is simple, rough cut, and working exactly as intended. It has probably been this way for decades. Only the control panel suggests newer advancements. But, same physics as decades ago - cold air, humidity, fans for pushing air, air movement from higher pressure to lower pressure. I presume the culverts have been modified with holes drilled in three positions around the unit. Tried and true - it works!

Thank you for leaving this comment! All very true. I’m glad you like the video! The o light to great. I am going to be carrying it a lot now that I have one. I need a head lamp one next! Thank you again for watching!
Good to see Shane taking part in your videos. Keep encouraging him.
I will try!
Working on it haha
great job , and really enjoying your videos
Thank you!
Great channel, very interesting...subscribed. You guys are great, and I love potatoes, so I appreciate the work you do very much...thank you! Come see us in FL when you get too cold!
Hey there! Thank you for watching! We might just have to take you up on that if we ever get any time off! Thank you for the support 😁

Thanks for the tour, a lot of engineering and thoughtful design goes into it. Poo construction could easily ruin the final product. Glad to hear you were pleased with the contractor and the outcome. Sounds like the contractor was from Aroostook County (did I hear "from the County" correctly?).
Yessir, Buck construction, they do good work for sure
you guys are so cute , cool and handy !
Thank you!
