Immokalee, Fla. – Lipman, North America’s largest open field tomato grower, is rounding out its fresh produce programs with one of the most diverse vegetables available – potatoes.
“Fresh from Florida, Lipman’s red and gold potatoes are available to purchase for a 10-week period from the middle of February through April,” said Jessica Kerstein, Marketing & Business Development at Lipman. “Our potatoes are consistently delicious and grown with a great deal of care to ensure quality.”
Potato harvest has begun at Lipman and they will be available in bulk totes, 50-pound boxes and bags. Fresh red and yellow potatoes are often eaten skin-on – unlike their baked ancestors – making them more nutritious.
Grow your produce department with flavor and innovation. Lipman’s potato portfolio is a great item to pair with its ever-expanding tomato programs. They encourage the marriage of the potatoes as the “taters” in its “Taters and Maters” campaign, available from Lipman.
