Agriculture / market gardens | | Spanish term or phrase: aquí hay mata y patata | Hi all!
Let's see if I can explain this one. It's a text on small market gardens being set up in schools in Spain and mainly comprises photo captions; problem is I don't get to see the photo. I'm fairly sure this particular one (there's no more to it than I've given you above) is a play on the expression "donde no hay mata no hay patata" and I expect that the photo shows both the potato plant and one or several potatoes.
Any ideas for a nice translation of the caption without having to forfeit the wordplay?
