Potatoes have long been a staple of the Thanksgiving table. This holiday season, try a new, creative way to make them the star: Introducing potatoscapes, a tablescape that celebrates America’s favorite vegetable. Potatoscapes invite everyone to design their own tablescape made entirely (or mostly!) from potatoes. Simply buy a variety of potato types in different colors and sizes, plus other items with complementary colors and textures, and start building your tablescape. We complemented our potatoes with seasonal produce such as citrus and pomegranates, and added flowers to bring out the potatoes’ various browns, yellows, and reds. This is your chance to make the versatile spud the centerpiece of your celebration.
Why Potatoes Deserve the Spotlight
Potatoes are nutrient-dense, affordable, and versatile, making them a staple for holiday gatherings across the country. Through potatoscapes, you will see potatoes as more than mashed potatoes and create joy for those around your table. Whether gathering with friends for Friendsgiving or hosting a family feast, a potatoscape is a fun way to spark conversation and celebrate the season’s bounty.
From Decoration to Delicious Dishes
There’s no need to waste the potatoes once the festivities end. After your photo-worthy potatoscape gathering, turn your display into a feast all season long! From creamy mashed potatoes and crispy roasted potatoes to creamy Au Gratin, there are countless ways to transform your masterpiece into mouthwatering meals.

Keep Your Spuds Fresh All Season
Remember to store your potatoes properly to help your potatoes last through the holidays. Keep them in a cool, dark, well-ventilated place — not in the fridge — such as a pantry or cabinet. With a bit of care, your potatoes will stay fresh and ready for every potatoscape, every recipe, and every celebration this season brings.
Grab a bag of spuds, gather your friends, and create your own potatoscape! Share your masterpiece on social media using #Potatoscapes and #ItsGivingPotato to celebrate potatoes in a whole new way this November. Follow @potatogoodness on Instagram or TikTok for more seasonal ideas.
