FIELD GUIDE
The story
Giant potatoes with giant red forks stuck in them, on the Princes Highway outside a shop called The Spud Shed. The proposition could not be clearer.
What lifts the arrangement above a plain oversized vegetable is the cutlery. A giant potato on its own is produce; a giant potato with a fork driven into it is food, mid-meal, and the red of the forks against the brown gives the group the colour contrast that a paddock-coloured tuber badly needs from a moving car.

WHAT TO EXPECT
Current business records confirm The Spud Shed remains active at the Princes Highway/Rankins Road site, while recent Victorian Big Things coverage and current attraction listings continue to identify the giant potatoes and forks at the venue.
ACCESS
Navigate to The Spud Shed. Use the business parking rather than stopping on the Princes Freeway shoulder.
