When is National Potato Day?

Every year on August 19.

What is National Potato Day?

National Potato Day celebrates the humble tuber that has quietly shaped world history, agriculture, and cuisine since its domestication in the Andes thousands of years ago. Now the world's fifth most-cultivated crop, the potato gets its due with mashed, roasted, and fried tributes around the globe.

How to celebrate

Mark the day with a poster made in Dayfeed — pick your favourite photo as the background, share it to your story or group chat, and set a reminder so you never miss it next year.
