About Made by a Potato

Made by a Potato™ is a passion project from the people who brought you FRIDAY SOCK CO., LITTLE MAY PAPERY, & WEEKDAY CANDLES. Made by a Potato™ has partnered with Action Against Hunger™ to donate a meal to a child in need for each card sold. This includes wholesale. We started our small business journey in 2015 in a one bedroom condo. Very soon after we added a baby Ella into the mix who crawled her way through a maze of boxes in our living room. Back then we had a printed thermometer taped to the wall and would keep track of new stores we were able to get our products in. When we hit our goal we would be able to think about quitting our day jobs. Adam (me) had a mismatched sock company with 6 designs, and Leanne had a watercolour wedding/home portrait/greeting card business. Our weekends were filled by dragging bins of socks and cards to local markets with baby Ella tagging along a number of times. I'll always remember helping customers while rocking her to sleep with my foot. But! Before I put YOU to sleep with the background story, let's fast forward. At the time of writing this (March 2022), we are a 12 person team occupying a small warehouse in Calgary, Alberta Canada. Our team's mission is simple. We want to make interesting products responsibly, give back to the community and beyond, and (hopefully) make our customers smile in the process. In the past three years, our group of small creative brands has given over $100k to non-profits and charitable causes. Read their story
