Laissez notre musée vous raconter l'incidence de l'humble pomme de terre sur la survie des premiers colons néo-brunswickois et son importance pour l'économie actuelle du Nouveau-Brunswick. Nos expositions interactives feront la lumière sur son histoire, son industrie et la recherche dont elle est l'objet. Vous pourrez même constater à quoi s'astreignent les travailleurs pour que les meilleures pommes de terre se retrouvent dans vos assiettes! Une nouvelle visite participative vous permettra de faire l'expérience du coupage et de la plantation des pommes de terre de semence, de la difficulté de déplacer un tonneau de pommes de terre de 75 kg (165 lb) et du découpage de vos propres frites. Elle se termine par la dégustation d'une portion de frites chaudes

Nous vous promettons beaucoup de plaisir en compagnie de vos guides, les tubercules Trevor et Pierrette! Niché sur deux acres de la pittoresque vallée du St.-Jean, le Monde de la pomme de terre présente des expositions interactives d'avant-garde, des vidéos éducatives, des équipements anciens et un jardin où poussent différentes variétés. Vous trouverez également chez nous le Panthéon du Monde de la pomme de terre, qui souligne les contributions néo-brunswickoises à cette industrie. Le Monde de la pomme de terre est situé dans la capitale mondiale de la frite, à Florenceville-Bristol au Nouveau-Brunswick, à seulement de la Transcanadienne Exit 153, sur la route 110. Ce complexe propose des expositions interactives amusantes et enrichissantes, à l'intérieur comme à l'extérieur. Du plaisir pour toute la famille! N'oubliez pas de passer au Harvest Cafe… évidemment, la pomme de terre est à l'honneur dans les meilleures recettes du Nouveau-Brunswick! Entrée : visite ordinaire/visite participative
