Well, we have volunteer plants all over the place.  I just let them grow. 
*Usually* we get some nice tomatoes, potatoes and other goodies from the 
chickens "helping" out the compost pile.

HOWEVER, this year we have franken squash.  The plants *look* like zucchini 
plants but, and that's a great BIG but, the fruit is definately "franken!" 
It is kinda colored like zuc's and striped like zuc's but that is where the 
resemblance ends!  I'm thinking a pumpkin cross?  Or maybe a watermelon 
cross?  I don't think it would be a cantelope cross.

Strangest things you've ever seen!  Anyone else come up with bizarre 
volunteers?
