UK: Isle of Ely Produce opening its doors to show journey from potatoes to chips

Isle of Ely Produce is to open its doors twice this year for a double open day. The first free event, for chip shop owners, will be held on Monday September 7 at the company’s farm in Oak Tree Lane, Littleport. Guests will be welcomed by south east Cambridgeshire MP Lucy Frazer and chip owners and managers will be able to see firsthand ‘the long and often arduous journey a potato makes before it reaches their shops’. The day will also involve suppliers exchanging ideas and listening to key speakers presenting ideas from across the industry. Organisers are inviting key potato growers to attend and there will be a number of speakers on the day, including talks from industry people and presentations from seed breeders.
