OUR HISTORY
Our History
The Little Potato Company started in 1996 with a one-acre plot near Edmonton, Alberta when Jacob van der Schaaf set out to determine if the small potatoes he loved as a boy in Holland could be grown in Alberta. He sold his first crop at a farmer’s market with a dream that his potatoes would someday be found in restaurants and supermarkets. The following year, he and his daughter, Angela, brought that dream to life when they formed The Little Potato Company.
