Garlic


Through the years, many of our long-term members have suggested we include garlic in our CSA shares. Well, we just ordered 60 pounds of organic German White/Red Hardneck Garlic that arrived this week! The garlic will be planted later this month before the first frost. This will be our first trial growing garlic on our farm and we're hoping for a great harvest next year!
