Although there are those who insist that no such thing
exists, I had a free lunch the other day.
There was a small compost bin in my community garden plot last
year. At the end of the growing season last year I gathered up debris from my
garden and stuffed the bin. I had invited my neighbors in an adjacent plot to
do the same. Later I tilled it all into the soil.
Evidently the “all” included some pieces of potato, because
a potato plant appeared in one of the tree peony beds early this year. I dug the potato plant up last week, and you see the harvest in
the image above. Three potatoes make a comically
small harvest, but they went on to make a fine lunch!
