Idaho, with a perfect climate of hot days and cool night plus rich volcanic soil, grows more potatoes than any other state. It only stands to reason that the state would have a museum dedicated to potatoes and of course we had to go see it. :-D The museum begins with exhibits on potato cultivation in South America and quickly moves on to the Idaho potato industry. Don’t miss the world’s largest Pringles potato chip!
Out of state visitors get free potatoes!
The museum is accessible but entry is a bit awkward because of the rough patch of concrete right in front of the door. A steep ramp accesses the room with processing equipment. To avoid the ramp use the passageway by the restrooms. A kids hands-on area is accessed by a steps only.
The parking lot is large enough for any RV. Museum 43.18979, -112.34326
