Fact Friday!!!
🍠🍠🍠🥔🥔🥔🥔

🥔 Sweet potatoes contain 327% of your daily recommended value for vitamin
A, which is more than any other vegetable. Vitamin A is important for cell
growth and development, for fighting off diseases and for good vision. They
are one of the most nutritious vegetables you can eat
🍠 There are two main varieties of sweet potatoes, pale yellow with a dry flesh
and dark orange with a moist flesh.
🥔 The skin of the sweet potato can be white, yellow, orange, red or purple.
🍠 Sweet potatoes can be eaten raw, like carrots.
🥔 If refrigerated, sweet potatoes will develop a hard core and bad taste. Store
them in a cool, dry place with temperatures between 55º-60º F.
🍠 A traditional dish served at Thanksgiving in the U.S. is candied sweet
potatoes made with sweet potatoes, brown sugar or maple syrup, butter,
marshmallows, cinnamon and orange juice.
🥔 Our first president, George Washington, grew sweet potatoes on his farm in
Mount Vernon, Virginia.
🍠 New Jersey ranks 7th in sweet potato production across the United States.

Hunter's Farm Market has the best sweet potatoes!

Class 12 of the NJ Agricultural Leadership Development Program (NJALDP) gathered yesterday at the Farm House in Trenton for an impactful seminar, sharing insights and experiences on agriculture and leadership. The day concluded with a unique opportunity for the class to join the New Jersey Agricultural Society board meeting, where they put faces to the names driving NJ agriculture forward.

Sam Nichols, Class 12 student, shared, ‘We’ve created a bond as a class, coming from different sectors but united by our passion for agriculture. The discussions and speakers Karen (Plumley) brings together always surprise us, whether it’s about thoughtful listening or personal development.’ With just four more sessions before their journey culminates in Portugal, Class 12 continues to strengthen their leadership skills while deepening their connection to the Ag community!
