The garlic harvest

Because the weather has been so gross, I can’t really spend more than 20 minutes or so at a time in the garden right now. The weeds really need to be brought under control again, but there was a task I needed to get to first…

Harvesting my garlic

It all came up beautifully! And you can see, I’ve got 14 lovely-sized bulbs (they filled half of one of the square raised beds).

I plan to take two of the smallest to Mom for some fresh eating (she’ll be able to use them up quickly before they rot).

The rest I tied up in bundles and they are now hanging in the sun porch to dry and cure for longer storage!

Not a bad haul for about 10 minutes of work last fall!

    Lucky you! Fresh garlic is the best. It’s so nice to know where your food is coming from isn’t it?

    Blessings,
