It’s not uncommon for people to stumble upon long-lost items in the most unexpected places. Whether it’s while cleaning out a cluttered garage or reorganizing a spare room, forgotten treasures often resurface. Jewelry, in particular, has a knack for disappearing and reappearing in bizarre ways—think earrings under refrigerators or rings lodged in shoe treads. But one woman’s story takes the cake: she found her missing engagement ring 13 years later—on a carrot.
Mary Grams, an 84-year-old from Canada, lost her diamond engagement ring two decades ago while weeding on her family farm in Alberta. Devastated, she kept the loss a secret from everyone except her son, believing the ring was gone forever. Over time, she moved on with her life, forgetting about the ring entirely.
Fast forward to 2023, when Mary’s daughter-in-law, Colleen Daley, was harvesting carrots in the same spot where Mary had been weeding all those years ago. As Colleen pulled up a peculiarly twisted carrot, she noticed something unusual: a diamond ring. The carrot had grown right through the ring, bringing the two to the surface together.
