Our Story
Clean Seed with Loads of Performance
In 1984 the farm was renamed Visser Farms (1984) Ltd. and became strictly a seed potato farm shipping to the United States. Throughout the 1980’s and 90’s Visser Farms purchased more land and constructed their state of the art storage facilities.
Paul Visser, a third generation potato grower, with his wife Tricia purchased Visser Farms in 1999, expanding their market to include Mexico and Thailand. Paul incorporates the latest developments in field management and potato fertility to ensure that Visser Farms provides quality products and service to their customers.

Our Facilities
Learn About Our Storage and Production
Storage
The entire facility is lined with cedar that also helps to absorb excess moisture. The higher generation potatoes are all stored in individual wooden boxes. These storage boxes allow for maximum airflow and ensure varieties will not be mixed. Loading the potatoes indoors in our large loading area, which allows flexibility during the shipping months, eliminates weather stress.
Production
Soil samples are done every all and decisions are made concerning what levels of fertilizer will produce the best quality and vigorous crop. Herbicides, pesticides and fungicides are also incorporated into the growing program to ensure best results.
Visser Farms eliminates any possibility of bruising by using specially designed equipment that reduces stress and damage that can occur from handling.
