MPBN Community Films presents the sights and sounds of the handpicked potato harvest at a few of the farms where the tradition still takes place in "The County." This show helps to explain what inspires these folk to keep planting each year.

Today small, family run potato farms are fast disappearing and with them, the tradition of the hand picking harvest. The Maine Potato Board estimates that only one to two percent of potatoes now harvested in Aroostook County are gathered in baskets and barrels. "Tater Raisin' Folk" celebrates this long agricultural tradition.

Tater Raisin' Folk is produced by Brenda Jepson of Crown of Maine Productions.
