Are "volunteer potatoes" the ones that grow from spuds you accidentally leave in the ground? This is the second time I read that phrase today.
Yes, I don't know if everybody calls them that, but it seems a lot of people call them that. I miss potatoes every year when I dig them, usually the small ones. I don't think they all make it through the winter here, but enough of them do to grow plants in the spring. You can usually get pretty decent potatoes from the volunteer plants also, that's why I let them grow. :-)
I know what you mean about potatoes. You can never harvest a bed completely, no matter how hard you try! Gotta love nature. She gives you surprises later in the year.

Yes, it's always fun seeing the potatoes coming up in a place that you didn't plant them, because you had them there the year before. :-)
Hello there @amberyooper, we've had trouble with the bunnies eating our peas, so my hubby built this little fence around them using green tree branches, so far so good![IMG_3282.JPG](https://steemitimages.com/640x0/https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXhaaPsgDqhwYdeTZALiABLirG1iEvKEbmMfAkng8a2fc/IMG_3282.JPG)
Hopefully that will work well for you.
We be waiting for the plantation then the harvest follows
Lovely gardening update, hope the potatoes are still eatable.

I could eat them if I wanted to, but I will probably plant them in the garden again so that I can get more potatoes this fall.
