🧄Step. Away. From. The. Grocery. Store. Garlic. 😂 🧄Step. Away. From. The. Grocery. Store. Garlic. 😂

Thinking about planting garlic this fall? What you put in the ground matters.

That bulb from the produce aisle may be perfectly delicious for dinner, but it isn't necessarily the best choice for your garden.

Choosing healthy seed garlic--and varieties suited to our climate--is one of the first steps toward growing bigger, better bulbs.

Want to know why?

That's one of the things we'll dig into during Growing Great Garlic: From Clove to Cure.

🗓️ Saturday, September 19, 10 am

From choosing your cloves to curing your harvest, we're covering the whole season.

Registration is open--come grow garlic with me!
