Orapeake Farms was established in 1991. We have been growing Baker Sweet Potatoes for around 33 years and added Hayman Sweet Potatoes about 16 years ago. We would like to offer to you the opportunity to grow some of the sweetest and most flavorful potatoes around!
The Baker Sweet Potato was developed at the Virginia Agriculture and Trucking Station in Virginia Beach, Virginia in the mid 1900's. It has an orange flesh that cooks up soft and moist and is sweeter than most varieties when initially dug, and gets sweeter as it cures. This is an heirloom variety that is not easily found. My local customers all agree that it is the best sweet potato they have ever eaten!
The Hayman Sweet Potato came to the Eastern Shore of Virginia from the West Indies through Elizabeth City, North Carolina. It is a very sweet white sweet potato, a heirloom variety that has been grown on the Eastern Shore of Virginia for generations.
We have unveiled a new variety! Over the past 6 years, through natural selection, we have developed a sweet potato that has the exterior appearance of the Virginia Baker with an interior that is creamy white. When cooked it is very sweet, soft and moist. We hope you will try them.
