About Us

The purpose of the Wisconsin Potato Growers Auxiliary is to promote and advance the Wisconsin Potato Industry. Kids Dig Wisconsin Potatoes is a program developed in partnership with the Wisconsin Potato Growers Auxiliary.

Our members educate Wisconsin consumers about the health benefits of potatoes, as well as how to use potatoes in their diet, how to buy and store potatoes, and how potatoes are grown and transported to the consumer. This is accomplished through numerous projects including:

• Baked Potato booth at the Wisconsin State Fair and WPS Farm Show
• Health Fairs
• Kids Dig Wisconsin Potatoes Program
• Wisconsin Potatoes in the Classroom Program
• Brochures containing consumer information and recipes
• “Family Features” recipe pages in newspapers
• Provide scholarships
• Sponsor This Business Called Agriculture books

Auxiliary Board Members:

• Heidi Schleicher – President
• Datonn Hanke – Vice President
• Becky Wysocki – Secretary/Treasurer
• Jody Baginski
