<p><strong>Grand Forks, ND</strong><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Black Gold Farms has kicked off Summer with the season’s red potato harvest and a five-month, locally grown program. The program is displayed on potato packaging with specially marked tags that communicate fresh and local messages. A QR code is also presented on packs and links consumers to an educational video about the local growing region and community programs supported by Black Gold Farms. The program transitions through all of their summer potato growing locations including Texas, Florida, Missouri, Arkansas and Indiana.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Retailers can also play a hand in the local fun with merchandising programs tailored to the specific retailer by Black Gold Farms. The company will help retailers develop regionally specific campaigns or customizable point-of-sale messages to emphasize Black Gold Farms product displays, according to a press release.<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">Glen Reynolds, National Director of Produce Sales remarked, “The Black Gold Farms brand has been synonymous with high quality potatoes, superior customer service and sustainable farming for decades. It was only natural that the Halverson family expand their business beyond the chip potato industry to include fresh tablestock potatoes.” Reynolds continued, “Black Gold Farms experience and geographic diversity has provided a real opportunity to offer retailers a consistent and local supply of red potatoes from a single-source supplier on a year-round basis.”<hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><a class="btn btn-sm btn-primary col-lg-12" style="white-space: normal;" href=" http://www.blackgoldpotato.com/" target="_new"> Black Gold Farms </a></p><hr class="legacyRuler"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding"><hr class="invisible minimal-padding">
