Sweeter, Denser, and Better for You!

Say hello to the purple sweet potato. Grown by as at Spring Lakes Farm, in the Lockyer Valley, SEQLD, Australia, they are kind of like a hidden gem of the valley.

The purple sweet potato is denser with a slightly nutty flavour compared to the standard gold (orange flesh) spud.

While they are less popular on commercial scale, I do know a lot of locals who love to buy these delicious, purple-skin-white-flash variety.

And on an exciting note, we were hit by hail that wiped out the entire farm in November - except for these sweet spuds that were only days old when the hail hit. The fact they survived makes this harvest that little bit sweeter.
