Gairloch Museum to launch Tattie Project later this month
THE role of the potato from past to present day comes under the spotlight at a fascinating workshop that delves into its history and offers tips on how best to plant them.
Gairloch Museum is launching The Tattie Project on Saturday, April 26 with a fun and informative session that will look at their history, culture and cultivation of the vital vegetable.
The museum says: “This event is perfect for all ages and offers a blend of quizzes in the museum, looking at some of our potato-related collection and some hands-on activities outdoors.”

There’s also a quiz and show and tell. And to round it off, a tattie snack!
