Give us your best sweet potato recipes and you could win $100 to City Market and a 5 pound bag of local sweet potatoes!

Local farmers are starting to grow sweet potatoes in Vermont and, for the first time, we have enough to last through the winter. Sweet potatoes are incredibly versatile and taste great in curries, casseroles, stews, salads, breads, and more.

Enter as many of your favorite sweet potato recipes as you like online between February 17 and 23.

The contest has now closed. Thanks for your entries!
