WSU POTATO FIELD DAY JUNE 24th

The Washington State University Potato Group will hold a COVID-modified Potato Field day on June 24 that incorporates a self-guided tour of the WSU Potato Seed Lot Trial and several research demonstration trials. WSU researchers will be available to answer questions and guide participants. If COVID restrictions are reduced or lifted prior to June 24, there may be additional activities and discussion groups. In an effort to reduce the crowd size, the event will be offered from 8:30 AM to 2:30 PM, and participants may arrive at any time during the six-hour window.

No lunch will be offered, but the Washington State Potato Commission will bring out Freida the Fry Van and provide hot French fries. The event will take place at the WSU-Othello Research Farm located at 1471 W. Cox Rd, Othello, WA. Pesticide recertification and CCA credits will be available.
