Wisconsin Potato Contest Offers Chance at Football Party Pack

The Wisconsin Potato and Vegetable Growers Association is launching a “Get in the Game with Wisconsin Potatoes” recipe contest.

Consumers enter the contest online by submitting a game day recipe featuring Wisconsin potatoes. Grand prize is a pair of NFL team game jerseys. Second prize is an NFL team inflatable buffet and four NFL quad chairs; third prize is an NFL team snack helmet.

There will also be a random drawing for an iPad. Each person who submits a Get in the Game recipe will automatically be entered in the drawing, and those consumers who rate the Get in the Game recipe submissions will also be entered.

Contest submissions will be shared on the Eat Wisconsin Potatoes Facebook page throughout the duration of the contest. Submissions will be accepted through Aug. 29; recipes can be rated through Sept. 21. Winners will be announced Sept. 27.

Established in 1948, the Antigo, Wis.-based WPVGA provides grower education, government support, environmentally sound research and consumer education for 150 grower organizations across the state.
