Does anyone have a good source for Yukon gold potatoes? We plant a 100 lbs. plus of them for are road stand and they go over big.

I would strongly suggest that you go to a reputable local nursery for your supply. Ensure that they are certified as disease and pest free. For your other seed supplies I would suggest that you ensure your seed is date stamped - I lost 2 acres of snow peas to this - harsh lesson! I live in BC, Canada, here we have a massive potato crop problem due to field contamination brought in by seed potatoes. Many of the farmers now have a 3 year ban on their fields and are not allowed to grow potatoes - it takes that long for the virus to leave! Good luck, Jacqueline
