Every year on March 17, over 50 countries worldwide, including the United States, turn emerald to commemorate the feast day of Ireland’s patron saint, St Patrick.

Because of the Great Hunger or Potato Famine in Ireland from 1845 to 1852, thousands of Irish families dispersed in many other places across the globe. Irish citizens decided to rebuild their lives elsewhere, and the majority of them came to the USA.
Over 33 million Americans identify as ethnically Irish, either partially or entirely, placing it as the second-most common ancestry in the United States after German.
Here’s another trivia. Did you know that some of the grandest St. Patrick’s Day parades and celebrations in the world happen in U.S. cities? These cities include New York, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Denver, CO., San Diego, CA., and more.
Since the potato blight took a vital role in the celebration of St. Pat’s Day, it makes sense to honor the Irish day with potatoes.
Plus, leprechauns are known for their devious pranks!
Send customized potatoes to your friends, family, or loved ones to let them know you’re thinking about them on St. Patricks Day with our St. Patrick's Day Potato Bundle. We give you the option to send the package anonymously—or perhaps from "the leprechauns"—as a prank... or send it with wishes of good fortune from yours truly!

Leprechauns are a popular piece of Irish folklore. These tiny old men are traditionally known as “tiny tricksters” of the fairy family.

In Irish folklore, it’s believed that wearing green makes you invisible to leprechauns, which like to pinch anyone they can see.
Not only that, but donning something green on St. Patrick’s Day also brings good luck and fortune.
Whichever you believe about the above traditions, these shamrock striped knee socks come in handy. Either wear a pair on St. Pat’s day or send it as a gift—your choice actually. (wink)
