storing potatoes

hello, can any one tell me how to store my potatoes until they are needed, should I leave them in the ground or is there some way of keeping them once I have dug them up, also thanks for all your advice on growing them,

We dug them, wiped the dirt off with dry rags, and then layered them in sawdust in clean, brand-new metal garbage cans. Be sure that the potatoes are not touching each other when you put them in the sawdust.
