2022 Washington & Oregon Potato Conference
Welcome Letter

Dear Vendors, Sponsors and Attendees:

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you back to the campus of the Three Rivers Convention Center for the 2022 Washington and Oregon Potato Conference and Trade Show. Having an in-person conference is something that I think is very important to our industry and we are proud to be able to make that happen.

I want to thank all of you who support last year’s virtual conference either as a vendor, sponsor or participant. While the virtual component was the only option we had available, it clearly lacked the personal interaction that most all of you have come to not only enjoy but expect to happen each winter before starting another potato crop.

There will be several new exhibitors this year with a slightly refreshed look to our layout both in the Convention Center as well as the Toyota Center. We will be having even more new technology being showcased in the Ag Innovation Session of the conference and more than 30 topics of interest to be discussed in the general session.

A completely new feature this year will be Potatoes USA’s own Chef RJ Harvey will be showcasing some new ways to prepare potatoes both during the general session and in a more in-depth demonstration next door in the Spring Hill Suites.

The Conference Board of Directors feels that we have put together the best conference yet for you to learn more about the potato industry and to network with new and old friends. We hope to see you there and that it will be the kickoff to an amazing 2022 potato year.

Sincerely,
Dale Lathim, Chairman
