Mountain, thanks so much for the information. This is perfect. I know I can grow sugar beets here, they mainly use them for livestock feed.
Since the price of sugar is going up so much (it has more than doubled in the past 6 months) , I've been looking at ways to substitute. I have bought stocks, but I would like to be able to make my own. I don't mind if it's not white, as long as there is sweetness. In times of stress, something sweet helps a soul feel comforted now and again!
And I wondered if it was a process that could be done at home. I see now that it can, and I will grow sugar beets next year.
Thanks again!!
