Jeremie Brochu, who is 85 years old, stills keeps a garden on his acreage near Assiniboia. As he was winterizing and cleaning out his vegetable storage, he came across a potato forgotten in storage with unusual sprouting. Brochu did not plant a potato crop this year because of the drought, making this red potato two years old. The 2016 potato crop was large and plentiful.
