Answer: C
In the second stanza the poet is observing his father digging potatoes.
The second stanza (the indented lines, from 'My father, digging, I look down') has the speaker looking down at his father, whose back bends low 'among the flowerbeds' and who comes 'up twenty years away / Stooping in rhythm through potato drills'. He is watching one man, his father, digging.
'Potato growers in the countryside' and 'farmers in the fields' make it a group of people in a field, but the poem has one man, seen from a window ('Under my window'). 'A gardener tending flower beds' picks up the word flowerbeds, but the flowerbeds are only where he is bending; what he is doing is digging potato drills.
