Great show! Talks about Snow Hill, NC and sweet potato farmers. NC produces 42/43% of US sweet potatoes, according to HAM who was interviewed on his farm. Ham Farms. He noted a lot of NC sweet potatoes now going to Europe. Also showed Yamco which makes sweet potato purees for various customers who use it in products that we then consume. Not sure if a consumer can buy direct. Several sweet potato recipes shown, from cornbread to pancakes. And, finally, the Society of St Andrew which retrieves missed sweet potatoes in the ground. Expectation of huge potential growth in sweet potato growing and sales.
