Pulborough Garden Centre manager, Geoff Oborne, said: "We're really looking forward to the weekend.

"We will have more than 20 varieties of seed potatoes at each store.

"Some of these will be sold loose so people can pick and mix their potatoes and try growing several different varieties and visitors will be offered free information and advice on growing potatoes."

The three garden centres will also be running a potato modelling competition for children.
