As one of Jersey’s most iconic exports, the Jersey Royal is as much a part of the islands’ agricultural heritage now as it was back in the 1800’s when it was first farmed.

It’s for this reason that we proudly support Genuine Jersey’s ‘Royal potato growing competition’ [link to our page] every year which celebrates our famous crop, and is an interactive way for school children to learn about local produce and agriculture.

But the very fact that we have our own revered variety of potato is by pure luck.
