Northland Potato Growers Association is a United States industry association that represents potato growers in the Red River Valley of Minnesota and North Dakota. The association promotes the region's potatoes and connects retail and foodservice distributors with member shippers who grow, pack, and ship red, yellow, white, and russet potatoes.
The Red River Valley has been a potato-growing region since the 19th century, with commercial cultivation expanding near Hoople, North Dakota, in the early 20th century. The Northland Potato Growers Association continues this tradition, representing growers who benefit from the valley's nutrient-rich black loam soil and natural rainfall. The association is headquartered in East Grand Forks, Minnesota.
