the big potato!

...All dressed up for the Robbo Show in 2010!
Originally the vision of local community groups, the Big Potato was constructed in 1979. Intended to promote Robertson’s famous red soil potatoes when the industry was a big part of Robertson, later years saw it fall into disrepair as locals harboured mixed feelings on their “big” thing. In 2008, a group of volunteers tidied up the area for the International Year of the Potato. Plants and benches have made it more attractive for frequent tourists photographing the landmark.
The Big Potato is maintained by the owners of the Robertson Supermarket - you can find Big Potato merchandise there.
