Heirloom tomatoes 🍅🍅
Organic gardening 🥕🌶
& Urban chickens! 🐔🐓

It's time to plant garlic! This year, I've put in 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.
