Potato World

iscover the impact the humble potato has had on the survival of New Brunswick’s early settlers and how important it is to the economy of the Province today. Explore the interactive displays for interesting insights into the potato’s history, the industry, the science and the hard work of the people who strive to put the best potatoes possible on your dinner table. Take our new Experiential Tour and experience hands on the cutting and planting of seed potato, the difficulties in moving a 165 lb barrel of potatoes and hand cutting french fries. Finish your tour with a serving of hot fries.

Nestled in the picturesque St. John River Valley, POTATO WORLD is 2 acres of state of the art hands-on displays, educational video theatres, antique machinery and a potato variety garden. We are also the home of the Potato World Hall of Recognition, acknowledging the contributions of New Brunswickers to the potato industry.
