Potato market in Borgholzhausen

For over 30 years, the town center of Borgholzhausen has transformed into a festively decorated autumn area focused on the potato during the third weekend of September. More than 80 stalls showcase agricultural products from direct marketers in the Ravensberger Land, while traditional crafts and unique goods enrich the offerings. The Borgholzhausen traditional costume couple and the Kiepenkerle convey the cultural heritage of the region during market hours. A potato table winding through the streets invites visitors to linger and enjoy culinary specialties centered around the tuber. A musical program, a popular potato quiz, the traditional potato peeling competition, and demonstrations of historical threshing with flails in collaboration with the local agricultural association ensure entertaining hours and amazed faces.
