Garlic in the Spring

Garlic bed in spring

Garlic!  We love it.

Garlic is a mainstay of our garden.  We dedicate at least one bed to garlic each year.  This small bed has about 60 lush plants growing for harvest in late July.

We use garlic extensively in our cooking for its flavor and health benefits.  Its easy to grow and store.  With its large cloves and bulbs, garlic is another of my kids favorite crop to plant and harvest.

Plant some garlic.  Its fun!

What are some of your tips for best growing garlic?
