Organic baby potatoes cheap! (order CLOSED)

Edit: We already have more than 6 people, and the group order is CLOSED. See link below to order on your own if still interested.

We’re putting together a group order for organic baby potatoes (to help some farmers; see story below). They’re NT$50/600g, and we get free shipping if we buy 18 kg worth, so if we get 6 people who can each take 3kg (NT$250) and pick them up from me in Donghu, Nangang, at 101, or somewhere in between those points, we’ll do a group order.

Here’s the link to the story in Chinese: newsmarket.com.tw/Article_Si … px?ID=1096
Basically, due to excess rain, the organic potato crop produced very small potatoes, which are not well received on the local market (except by foreigners, who like new or baby potatoes). So a direct sale effort by a farmer’s co-op is underway to help support the organic farmers.

Please sign up by posting here within the next 3 days if interested; again, pickup is from me, in eastern Taibei, presumably next week.

(Extraneous and unhelpful discussion will be culled.)

I want, but I’m too far south and not heading up north any time soon :frowning:

I want too, but I’m too far east.

baby spuds. Oh, I’m salivating at the thought.

You guys can order directly if you like; there’s a shipping fee of NT$100, which is waived if you buy $1500 worth. and we were aiming for the latter which is why we’re doing a group order. You don’t need to go through us if you’re out east or down south. The contact info is in the linked article, and you’ll need Chinese ability, I presume, or a friend to help.

Ok, I’ll add you, strangelove, and am closing this group order. They’ll be delivered Saturday, and I can swing by the Nangang Exhibition Center at 10 a.m. Monday, if that’s ok with you. PM me.

Anyone else still interested can contact the co-op directly (see above link).
