Morning Kiss Organic is expecting a high-quality crop of potatoes and onions. As autumn gives way to the holiday season, now is the time for gatherings focused on family, friends and food from the local harvest. Potatoes and onions figure prominently into hearty holiday cooking, and choosing organic produce contributes to the health of the meal as well as the environment.

The company said it is prepared to pack high-quality potatoes and onions to retailer specifications — including three-, four- and five-pound bags. Retail promotion opportunities abound with these items sure to be in popular demand. This season's crop of organic potatoes is East Coast-grown, including from farms in Massachusetts, Maine and Prince Edward Island.

"Potatoes and onions are key ingredients for savory soups, stews, and sides — the kinds of foods that families enjoy together as they gather for the holidays. We're proud to offer an exceptional organic crop and look forward to partnering with retailers to bringing potatoes and onions to family tables in New England and beyond," said Michael Guptill of Morning Kiss Organic.

A healthy choice within a balanced diet, potatoes contain no fat, sodium or cholesterol. Consumed with the skin on, potatoes offer a large dose of vitamin C and potassium, and are also a good source of vitamin B6, fiber, magnesium and antioxidants. Onions add flavor to dishes without adding salt or sugar, are also low in calories, and contain good amounts of fiber and folic acid.

As with all Morning Kiss Organic produce, potatoes and onions are available in a range of customizable formats and packed to retailer specifications.
