International Potato Day

Potatoes Australia is thrilled to share our excitement about our involvement in celebrating International Potato Day on May 30th. As an industry organisation dedicated to promoting the potato industry in Australia, we recognise the immense significance of this day, acknowledged by the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) and the United Nations.

International Potato Day serves as a global platform to celebrate the vital role that potatoes play in nourishing communities and sustaining agricultural economies worldwide. It's a day to acknowledge the versatility, nutritional value, and cultural importance of this humble yet powerful tuber.

In coordination with the Australian celebrations, Potatoes Australia has launched this dedicated webpage. This webpage is designed for organisations and groups to showcase their local events and initiatives scheduled for May 30th. It serves as a central hub for individuals and communities across Australia to come together, share their plans, connect with like-minded potato enthusiasts, and access resources to enhance their celebrations.

Whether you're planning a potato-themed cooking competition, a farm tour, a community meal, or any other creative event, we invite you to share your initiatives on our dedicated webpage. Let's unite to celebrate the extraordinary potato and its contributions to our lives and livelihoods.

Stay tuned for updates and further details on how you can get involved in making International Potato Day a memorable and impactful celebration!

Join us as we commemorate International Potato Day and honour this remarkable crop that continues to nourish and sustain us all. Together, let's make May 30th, a day to remember in the potato-loving community!
