Why Vee’s potatoes

More than a middleman.

Most potato suppliers start the conversation after the crop is harvested. We start before it’s planted.

Through our lead potato salesman John Alstrup — we call him “Potato John” — we work directly with growers on production decisions most suppliers never touch:

• Plant-to-order — we commit acreage before the seed goes in the ground
• Specialty seed sourcing — especially for organics and processing
• Acreage allotment — we help customers secure supply before the market does

This is farm-prep level involvement. It’s the difference between finding potatoes when you need them and already having potatoes grown for you.

And like onions, sourcing the right region at the right time is the whole game. Weather, water, and crop conditions shift the picture week to week. We watch all of it.
