Local Sweet Potatoes are in the Produce Department! 🍠
Our latest taste of fall comes from McAlister Farms in Fayetteville, Tennessee. The McAlister family has been growing sweet potatoes here in Middle Tennessee for generations, and we’re proud to bring their locally grown Beauregard sweet potatoes to H.G. Hill.
If you haven’t met Beauregard by name, you may recognize its rosy skin and beautiful orange flesh. Known for its sweetness, it’s right at home in the comforting dishes we start craving this time of year. Think baked sweet potatoes split open with a little butter and cinnamon, a homemade sweet potato pie, or that family casserole recipe passed down on a handwritten card.
You don’t have to wait for a holiday to enjoy them, though. Roast a pan of sweet potato chunks with olive oil, salt, and cracked black pepper to serve alongside supper. Sometimes the simplest preparation is all you need to let a good sweet potato shine.
One of our favorite parts of carrying locally grown produce is sharing the people and places behind it. These sweet potatoes bring a little of the McAlister family’s harvest to our Produce Department—and, we hope, to your family’s table.
Stop by and bring home a taste of Tennessee this fall.
