Our 'Why'

Supporting the Community

One of the key purposes of the Thorpdale Potato Festival is provide financial support to local community organisations and projects. 

At the conclusion of each festival, profits are calculated and distributed amongst local organisations using a merit-based grant application process. In 2023, $76,000 was injected back into the community!
