The History of Ugly Potato Day

In 2022, Heppell’s Potato Corp took a meaningful step to give back to our community by opening our farm and offering our imperfect potatoes free of charge. That first day, just 12 people showed up.

Since then, we have hosted nearly two dozen similar events, that attract over 15,000 people. Through partnerships with other local farms, each event can see us giving away 250,000 pounds of potatoes, carrots, squash, beets, apples, tomatoes, brussel sprouts, bread, cabbage, cucumbers, garlic, and other veggies and perishables!

As farmers, we understand that 20% of our community struggles with food insecurity. We firmly believe it is our responsibility to help address this need by sharing our ‘misfit’ produce.

Our Ugly Potato Days have given away over 2.73 million servings so far, and we're just getting started. Our biggest event yet will be hosted in 2025, so stay tuned!

Ugly Potato Day’s mission is to feed food-insecure communities while showing the world that just because produce is ugly-looking doesn’t mean it’s not nutritious and delicious.
