The 5 Pillars of Sustainability:
Food access
Be a part of it
Welcome to the Washington State Potato Commission, where our commitment to sustainable agriculture ensures that every resident in our state has access to nutritious, locally-grown food. In the fertile soils of Washington, we cultivate more than just potatoes; we cultivate a legacy of food security, community health, and environmental stewardship.
The Heart of Washington Agriculture
Washington State is renowned for its rich, volcanic soil, ideal climate, and innovative growing practices. Our growers are dedicated to producing high-quality potatoes that are not only delicious but also vital to the local food supply. Washington Potatoes are a staple in households, schools, and restaurants across the state, playing a crucial role in our daily diets.
Bridging the Gap in Food Access
Our growers recognize the importance of food access for all residents. We work tirelessly to bridge the gap between farm and table, ensuring that fresh, nutritious potatoes are available to everyone, regardless of their economic status. Through partnerships with food banks, community programs, and local markets, we make it possible for Washingtonians to enjoy the bounty of our harvests.
Sustainable Growing for a Healthy Future
Sustainability is at the core of our agricultural practices. By using innovative techniques such as crop rotation, integrated pest management, and water-efficient irrigation, we reduce our environmental impact while enhancing the quality and yield of our potatoes. These practices not only preserve our natural resources but also ensure the long-term viability of our farmlands.
