Sweet Potato House

Sweet Potato House Built by W.E.

Johnson in 1940, the Sweet Potato Curing and Storage House near Roopville, Georgia, incorporated sub-floor heating to regulate airflow, temperature, and humidity to cure sweet potatoes faster so that they would last through the winter cold.

Remodel Update!

Over the last year (or more) the Sweet Potato House has gotten a new roof to help keep the interior dry and protected from the weather. There was also a colony of bees living inside that have been safely removed and relocated to a new home! The next phase is to replace the siding and repaint the exterior with fresh colors. Please consider supporting our efforts by making a donation to receive one of the following items today. All proceeds go directly to support this project.

Limited Edition (50 signed and numbered) Alan Kuykendall Sweet Potato House print (unframed): 7 remaining at $100
Commemorative Coke Bottle with Box: $25 each or 5 for $100
Commemorative Box with Sunflower Seeds: $2
Drink Coasters (5 designs): $10 each or 4 for $30

These make great (and historic) Christmas presents for your friends and family and help celebrate an iconic fixture in Carroll County!
