Wisconsin Potato and Vegetable Growers Association

Our beauty is more than skin deep.

Purple potatoes

Wisconsin potatoes are beautiful through and through. On the outside our skins can be colorful and lively, and on the inside, they are beautifully enriched with nutritious vitamins, potassium, copper, manganese, phosphorous, niacin, fiber and pantothenic acids. Plus, they are low in calories and are gluten free. How can you top that? Well, you can with other vegetables and loads of other ingredients that can turn your Wisconsin Potato into a gourmet meal.
However, not all potatoes are created equally. Always ask your grocer for Wisconsin Potatoes. And if you’re living and eating in the Midwest, remember to buy Wisconsin Potatoes; food miles have a tremendous impact on the environment – and on your budget – so buy close to home.
Wisconsin is also the home to the Healthy Grown® Brand of potatoes, the only potato of its kind to be grown utilizing best practices in integrated pest management and water conservation. That’s how far our Wisconsin growers will go to protect the environment. Bon Appetit.
