Hi Judy you can try Wood Prairie Farm or the Seed Saver’s Organization, but it’s usually a good idea to order your fingerling potato seed stock early because they often run out as the planting season rolls around. Good luck.

Hi Madeline, fingerling potatoes are not difficult to find unless of course you are shopping for them in the grocery store. Even there they are becoming more popular these days. Many of the seed potato suppliers offer fingerling type seed stock. I have purchased seed potatoes from both http://www.woodprairie.com and the Seed Savers Exchange in the past.

Hi June, if you mean potatoes that have sprouted, yes they can be planted, provided that the sprouts are strong, short, and thick rather than weak, long, and spindly looking.

Is it possible to grow the potato from a potato with roots on, and if so when do I plant?
