Description

The very best baking potato! Developed by the University of Maine, Caribou Russet is a mid-season potato with real flavor and good keeping ability. Medium yields of good-looking, oval russeted tubers love cold climates (New England and northern-tier states on the Canadian border). Great for mashing and has a beautiful fry color. Resistant to golden nematode, scab and verticillium wilt. Certified organic. New potatoes can be harvested beginning about 7-8 weeks after planting.

  • Available for spring shipping only.
  • Last day to order seed potatoes is May 9
  • Seed potatoes will ship separately from the rest of your order. In the best interest of the plants, seed potatoes begin shipping on February 8 to the warmer parts of the country. Shipping will continue through Early June for colder parts of the country.
