 Stokes
Purple®
sweet potatoes are grown
on family farms
amidst one of North Carolina's most unique,
natural landscapes in Stokes County.
The climate and soil composition of the land surrounding
Hanging Rock State Park and the Sauratown Mountain range produce a
potato unusually rich in natural color and nutrients, both of which
are retained after cooking. Reversing today's trend toward
global production and processing,
Stokes Purple®
is an exciting new crop which allows rural NC communities to do what
they do best―grow and package exceptional products.
Corresponding economic growth enhances entrepreneurship and job opportunities
while preserving our natural resources and agricultural heritage.
