MAINE'S NEW 'CARIBOU RUSSET' POTATO KEEPS GROWING IN POPULARITY.

From our November 20, 2018 archive. Supply and availability statements below refer to that date.

Seed supplies for the new Non-GMO ‘Caribou Russet’ – named after the nearby potato town in Aroostook County – will continue to be tight in the potato industry for the next couple of years as seed growers multiply up supplies.
