I don't have any potatoes to spare this year. That dang ground hog did a pretty good job on demolishing most of my SP plants last spring both the ornamental and the ones I got from Russ, for eating. I am getting some starters from what I do have, but I am hosting a swap at my house and don't expect to have more than I can use this year. Not even sure I will have much to hand out at the swap. Last year I had so many more. As far as a Co-op I think your best bet would be to pick up a few plants, usually they sell them with the annuals at most of the big box stores. Then just remember to pull the potatoes next fall and overwinter them for next year.
Russ, Ric and I were down south a couple of weeks ago and had the best SP dish. Whipped with butter rum and cinnamon. Yummy
