Potato Tubers

Potatoes are super-versatile and are a staple ingredient of many meals in one form or another, whether boiled, mashed, chipped, roasted, or baked they just can't be beaten.

Potatoes are not grown from seed but rather "seed potatoes", also sometimes sold simply as ‘potato tubers’. Seed potatoes are not the same as shop bought potatoes. Certified seed potatoes are grown in controlled conditions to ensure they are true to type and free from disease. They are also renowned for vigorous growth and greater yield than their shop-bought counterparts.

Seed potatoes are available seasonally between April and August and are best planted after the seasons last frost as they do not tolerate frost well.
