Order Now – Next Season’s Seed Potatoes & Onion Sets
Posted 1st September 2021
We have reached that time of the year to order your seed potatoes and onion sets for the next growing season. Available from our trading shed we are again pleased to offer an excellent choice of quality potato varieties at
competitive prices.
Check our chart below for the full range, product information, prices and pack sizes. Orders must be placed at the trading shed before 24th October 2021.
Prices. Wholesalers have increased prices this year which is reflected in our selling prices. However, our selling prices as usual are below most retail and online outlets and of course purchasing from the trading shed supports our allotment site.
Extra Earlies. Last year the first early Swift was unavailable and we substituted with Maris Bard which performed really well. We are again supplying Maris Bard and also reintroducing Swift.
Earlies. The popular second early Arran Pilot is unfortunately not available this year. We are pleased to have added a new and highly recommended replacement, Nadine, which has a round shape; white skinned with cream colour flesh and produces a high yield. It’s good for boiling, mashing, baking and roasting.
How to order. Orders must be received before 24th October 2021. Please visit the trading shed to place your order for potatoes and onion sets. Payment is required when ordering and bring along a debit or credit card as we only accept contactless card payments.
