6-Ton Idaho Potato Teams Up With Pasadena’s 18-Foot-Tall Fork In The Road

October 19, 2012

Love spuds, guerrilla art and feeding the hungry?

This Tuesday stop by Pasadena’s own 18-foot-tall fork in the road, one of our favorite pieces of public art. It will be receiving a visit from a 6-ton potato that hails from Idaho but has been crisscrossing the country in the back of a customized truck.

Altadena’s the Coffee Gallery Backstage is sponsoring an event to bring out the massive potato created by theIdaho Potato Commission and raise money for Union Station Homeless Services and Meals on Wheels.

Idaho’s ideal growing conditions, including rich, volcanic soil, climate and irrigation differentiate Idaho® potatoes from potatoes grown in other states.
