Growing Potatoes at Home - Virtual Workshop

• Tuesday, April 22, 2025, 6:00 PM - 7:30 PM

Growing potatoes can be a fun, rewarding activity. Homegrown potatoes fresh from the garden taste delicious. If you’ve never had homegrown potatoes, you’re in for a real treat!

Learn how to grow them and grow your own! Our farmer-presenter Ed Fraser, Fraser’s Garlic Farm, will discuss key steps to growing spuds from planting and care, pests and diseases to harvest and storage. This workshop will help aspiring gardeners, hobbyists and homesteaders to successful harvest. 

Participants will be able to purchase a gourmet Potato Medley at registration. Buy our 4-Variey Medley and grow something NEW! The orders come in 3 lb. bags for $12.50 each. The supply is limited so order soon!
