Walk through founder and farmer Peter Roberts’ barn and learn how our world-famous potatoes were planted, grown, harvested and prepared through PEI’s history, from the 1900s to the present day.

Watch dozens of antique harvesters, fertilizers, planters and other equipment come to life in the antique barn at our family farm in Kinkora.

Learn how the earliest farming tools were used on the Island, and see how our forefathers innovated the profession through many generations.
