🎉🥔 Happy 3rd anniversary Harry!

Harry joined us three years ago as a Fieldsman, learning the ropes and travelling thousands of miles up and down the country visiting growers and sampling crops. 🌱🛻

…Three years on, he’s now based in the office as part of the trading team.

We asked Harry what he’s enjoyed most about the last three years:

💬 “The learning side of it. Meeting lots of new people and building new relationships.”

And the biggest challenge?

“How everything changes from season to season and learning to move with it.”

Three years down, many more to come. Well done, Harry! 👏🥔

Harry swapped the office for Scotland this week, exploring the science, technology and expertise behind potatoes. 👨‍🔬🌱

Delivered in partnership with the British Potato Trade Association, Harry took part in the second stage of the GB Potatoes ‘Potato Industry Development Programme’.

During the course, he gained valuable insight into the industry through visits to:

🥔 Cygnet Potato Breeders Ltd - mini-tuber facility
🥔 The James Hutton Institute
🥔 Grower, Robert Doig
🥔 SASA
🥔 SCANSTONE

A fantastic opportunity to learn from industry experts, broaden his knowledge and grow connections with other potato professionals from across the UK.

A great visit to Pembrokeshire last week to see crop progress. 🌱🥔

The crops are looking lush, healthy and thriving - and after a hot spell, the sound of rain was definitely music to our ears!

One of them was way off 👀 Who do you think came out victorious?

More from planting last month 🥔

Sagitta in the ground - the perfect all-rounder for the crispiest chips, golden roasts and fluffy mash.

From field to fork you know it’s not just ‘chips’ - it’s soil prep, seed selection, planting, lifting, storing…🌱

Our Field2Fry chip bags include Sagitta, Agria, and Markies - varieties which make the perfect golden, crunchy chip 🍟 🤌
