Kennebec is a reliable, all-purpose white potato with smooth tan skin and creamy white flesh. Known for its excellent yields, disease resistance, and long storage life, it’s a favorite for home gardeners and market growers alike. Great for frying, baking, boiling, and mashing.

To grow your Kennebec potatoes successfully, here are some guidelines for care:

  • Plant in well-drained, loose soil after danger of frost has passed
  • Hill soil around plants as they grow to protect developing tubers
  • Water consistently (especially during flowering and tuber formation)
  • Fertilize at planting and again mid-season (use a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer)
  • Harvest when vines begin to yellow and die back
  • Excellent for storage
  • Mid-season variety
  • Resistant to blight and common scab
