The Coeur d'Alene Coop The Coeur d'Alene Coop is at 2nd Street Chicken Ranch.

The Coeur d'Alene Coop
It's time to plant garlic! This year, I've put in 148 cloves, a bit less than last year. Varieties include Music, Susan Delafield, and Purple Gazer, plus Dutch red shallots. You still have time, but you want to plant before the ground freezes to give cloves some time to establish roots. I'll finish this bed off with a thick, 4 - to 6-inch layer of mulch for winter protection. For my growing tips, see link in bio or https://thecoeurdalenecoop.com/category/gardening/growing-garlic/ #thecoeurdalenecoop #garlicplanting #homegrowngarlic#organicgarlic #garliclover ...
