Woman Loses Engagement Ring In Garden Finds It 13 Years Later On A Carrot

Sure, we’ve seen people find things years later, sometimes in the weirdest places. Cleaning up a spare room or garage can yield treasures long forgotten. Jewelry, in particular, seems to be something that goes missing. People have found earrings under refrigerators, rings stuck in the tread under shoes, and the list goes on.

13 Years later, a carrot gave one woman quite a surprise!

84-year-old Mary Grams from Canada lost her diamond engagement ring 20 years ago when she was weeding her family farm in Alberta. She kept the loss secret from all but her son for over a decade. She thought the ring was lost forever and completely forgot about it, carrying on with her life.

Colleen Daley, Mary’s daughter-in-law, was harvesting carrots in the exact same spot that was worked for all those years and pulled up a rather knotted-looking carrot. It was then that she discovered her mother-in-law’s secret – a diamond ring. The carrot had grown right through the ring, enabling the two to be plucked right out of the soil together.
