I'm not sure where these came from...
So, there I was, out in the gardening preparing the soil for a few attempts at growing some winter crops. I was removing debris, uprooting weeds, and disturbing the soil a bit.
Suddenly, I pulled something up from the earth! Shortly after, I found a few more. Where in the world?...
In the end, I had 5 potatoes. I know that it's not a lot, but still, it's five more potatoes than I had when I awoke. It looks like there were three Russets and two Baby Red potatoes hiding under the soil.
My favorite part about discovering this buried treasure was that so far they are an unsolved mystery. As far as I know, I never planted any potatoes this year.
Back in Wisconsin, I had a friend who liked to grow potatoes just because it was like looking for buried treasure come harvest time. I can certainly relate to the feeling, and I'd say the excitement is increased when you aren't even expecting to find some!
WHERE DID THEY COME FROM?
I can say for sure that I did grow potatoes in the area that these were found last year, but I definitely did not this year. I guess I must have missed a few potatoes during the harvest last year and they regrew this year, to bless us with a few more potatoes.
That's part of why I enjoy gardening. Often, it's a gift that keeps on going. Looks like we had a few more volunteers in the garden this year, as these plants chose to grow on their own! Have any of you ever found hidden potatoes in an area that you weren't expecting to find them?
As always, I'm
