These convenience packed potatoes are now available at select retail grocers alongside Alsum Farms & Produce full-line of conventional, organic and specialty potato offerings. The eye-catching packaging capitalizes on the trust and expertise of the farmer, Larry Alsum. The high graphic sleeve is made from 100% recycled paperboard and uses 35% post-consumer content to protect the potatoes from light to prevent greening when on the store shelf or in the home cooks pantry. In addition the ready-to-serve container can be recycled.
