Shipping information

Most customers ask us to ship orders at the Best Time for Spring Potato Planting based on our 50-State Chart.

However, we do ship our Seed Potatoes 52 Weeks/Year, whenever you want them. We harvest our crop of Organic Maine Certified Seed Potatoes in September. We begin shipping this New Crop by November 1 (sometimes earlier) and continue shipping from our on-farm underground Potato Storage, every week through the Winter & Spring & Summer until October 31.

All new potato tubers grown anywhere must go through a Dormancy Period after harvest before tubers will sprout and grow. This dormancy lasts 4-8 weeks. For planting after December 1, the dormancy concern becomes a non-issue because our Seed Potatoes will have completed their rest period and will sprout and grow when warmed up to room temperature.

Note: Orders which include 45 pound carton(s) of Certified Seed Potatoes and shipped after mid-November and prior to the week of March 24 or between July 1 and September 30 customarily require a $16.00 insulated box fee. If insulated packaging should not be necessary, you will receive a shipping refund automatically. Feel free to call (207) 429-9765 (M-F 8:00-5:00pm ET) for a Rate Quote.

A homegrown harvest can be as colorful as it is satisfying! Organic Adirondack Red brings beautiful pink-flesh beneath red skin, giving gardeners a distinctive Cornell University variety to enjoy. Attractive, medium-sized, oblong tubers with few blemishes make a handsome addition to your potato patch. We grow our Organic Adirondack Red Maine Certified Seed Potatoes on our isolated Wood Prairie Family Farm in Bridgewater, in northern Maine’s Aroostook County.

In the kitchen, Organic Adirondack Red contributes wonderful texture and fresh color to steamed potatoes, sautés and au gratin dishes. Its soft, moist flesh also makes an appealing roasting potato with a little oil and your favorite seasonings.
