The Great Big Idaho Potato Truck was at BJ’s Wholesale Club in Henrico County on Friday to mark the Idaho Potato Commission’s 75th year and to raise funds for Meals on Wheels. U.S. tour ambassador Ellis Nanney took a photo of, from left, Josh and Sharon Begin of Richmond, Jane Nettleton of Midlothian, and Nancy and Roy Whitehouse of Blackstone. Chris Schofield of Idaho — the Whitehouses’ son, Sharon Begin’s brother and Nettleton’s grandson — helped create the potato. He is originally from Richmond.

The Idaho Potato Commission

Established in 1937, the Idaho Potato Commission (IPC) is a state agency that is responsible for promoting and protecting the famous “Grown in Idaho®” seal, a federally registered trademark that assures consumers they are purchasing genuine, top-quality Idaho® potatoes. Idaho’s ideal growing conditions, including rich, volcanic soil, climate and irrigation differentiate Idaho® potatoes from potatoes grown in other states.
