In 2004, Mary Grams lost her engagement ring while pulling weeds in her garden at her family’s farm in Alberta, Canada. Despite days of searching, the ring seemed lost forever. Over a decade later, in 2017, her daughter-in-law was harvesting carrots from the same garden and found an unusual one with something wrapped around it. To her surprise, the carrot had Mary’s long-lost diamond ring entwined around its root.
Mary had worn the ring since 1951, before marrying her husband, Norman, and had kept the loss a secret from him, fearing his reaction. After the ring disappeared, she replaced it with a similar one to avoid distressing him.
Mary’s family had maintained the farm even after moving to Camrose, and when the ring was rediscovered, they recognized it instantly. Though Mary’s husband passed away years ago, she was overjoyed to have the ring back. She plans to wear it again, as it still fits perfectly. The bizarre find of the ring on the carrot has left everyone amazed.
