Sweet potatoes are no fussier than winter squash—if you can grow butternut, you can grow sweet potatoes! See below for more information.
Sweet potato slips are shipped by region, not by USDA zone (see map below). In the Northeast they ship in mid to late May. If you live in a colder microclimate than your surrounding region, you may request a shipping week when placing your order.
Shipping schedule may change due to weather conditions or other variables. You will be notified via email when your order has shipped.

Sweet potatoes are tropical drama queens and need lots of heat and pampering to perform in the North. They prefer rich, slightly acidic soil (pH 5.5 to 6.5).
