Silly potato started as a idea on vacation in England when I saw my grandad composting. He gave me the recipe. When I came back to the U.S., I started making my own compost. It turned into a business idea. It is run by me, William. After raising two guide dogs for the seeing eye, one passed his guiding test and is now guiding in Ohio, and the other had allergies so is now our family pet, I have decided to donate some of our profits to the Seeing Eye.
