Giant Potato Contest Returns

But wait, there’s more!!
Exciting update on prizes for the Giant potato contest.

Thanks to the generosity of the Gowan Company and John Mohr, the winner of this year’s Giant Potato Contest will receive 90 lbs of Gavel fungicide valued at $700.00! That’s enough fungicide to treat about 45 acres. And what’s more, the winner also gets a case of good beer, a certificate of accomplishment, and bragging rights for one year. You simply can’t pass up this offer. Make plans to enter the Giant Potato Contest. You can’t win if you don’t enter.

Rules: The winner will be the person who grows the heaviest single tuber. Potatoes must be grown in Wisconsin soil. There are no restrictions on variety or production method. There will be no penalty for ugly or hollow tubers.

Venue: Entries must be brought to the 2015 UW Extension and WPVGA Grower Education Conference by 11:00 AM Wednesday, where official weights will be determined.
