Hello Arran

I’ve visited Isle of Arran several times it’s a very beautiful wee haven.

It seems that you have a fantastic history of Arran potato varieties thanks to Donald McKelvie yet I haven’t seen them being promoted much? There are many Arran potato varieties from 1st earlies to lates for eating right through the growing season and the winter.

I’d love to see a campaign to grow cook and eat Arran varieties – people could be growing them in gardens, plots, small areas of garden and field. Hotels and restaurants could be using and promoting them on their menus.

Bring the Arran potato legacy to life.
