Yesterday we harvested garlic.We save the largest garlic bulbs for planting the next year and each year the bulbs that we harvest are a little bigger.
We cut the tops, trim the roots,
and clean them up a bit.
Then we spread them out to dry for a while.Our total garlic harvest yesterday weighed in at over 28 pounds! They will loose a bit of water weight before they go into long term storage.I love that there are a few foods like garlic, onions, and potatoes that we haven't bought in years. We are able to grow enough and store them over the winter. We have just finished the last of our stored onions and the new onions can be harvested as needed as can the potatoes.
