Bulk wholesale potatoes - Extra-fresh from London's New Covent Garden Market
Can you imagine life without spuds? We can't. It's no surprise so many of our clients buy wholesale potatoes in bulk. It's a root vegetable that hails from the Americas, basically a starch-rich tuber from the Solanum tuberosum plant from the Solanaceae family. Wild potatoes, originating from modern Peru, are grown from the USA down to the wild tip of southern Chile.
The potato was first domesticated in south Peru and north west Bolivia. We can track the date it happened back to somewhere between 8000 and 5000 BC, but many feel potato cultivation in South America goes back at least 10,000 years. We are clearer about the date the spud first arrived in Britain – the magic date was 28th July 1586, when Sir Thomas Harriot brought the first potato back from Virginia, USA.
Wikipedia provides a long, long list of potato cultivars. There are 22 cultivars beginning with A, the tip of a huge spud iceberg.
