We’re already counting down to another spud-tacular event! 🎉 After last year’s incredible turnout, we’re thrilled to bring you an even bigger and better Tattie Day 2025, thanks to our amazing community! 🌟🚜 New Date & New Opportunities!
By popular demand, Tattie Day is moving to early April! Join us at the Glen Urquhart Public Hall on Saturday, April 5th, 2025, from 10am to 12:30pm. It’s the perfect time to grab your seed potatoes and, for the first time ever, a selection of veggie plugs from Abriachan Community Garden!
Don’t worry—this change won’t affect your growing success! Early varieties will still thrive, and we’d love to hear your feedback on the new date. 🥔✨
🌟 A Tattie Success Story!
One of our growers shared their experience:
"One of the tatties was massive - we had 8-inch chips for two days, and they were amazing! I got a fleg when I dug it up but soon got over it. The tatties were called 'Sunset'."
And great news—Sunset tatties are back! Don’t miss your chance to grow your own legendary crop! 🌄
