Pembroke Potato Festival June 5th 2010

Pembroke Potato Festival makes an exciting day out for the whole family. The festival celebrates the potato crop and aims to increase its profile at a time when growers have to compete with cheaper imported potatoes grown in warmer climates or in polytunnels.

The day will be filled with events, displays and activities such as pick your own , tasting, potato cookery demonstrations, ready steady cook competition, make a potato head mask, potato juggling, music, trade stands and more.

Last year Jo Knight  of Lovespoon Gelato, Capel Iwan, Newcastle Emlyn launched her new sweet spiced potato icecream Jo said
"It's definately different and decidedly moreish with a subtle earthy potato flavour mingled with hints of pepper, cinnamon, nutmeg & clove."
