Veggie Share - Week 8

Posted on July 29th, 2019
We had a great time harvesting our garlic yesterday! It took us only an hour to pick it all - with about 17 people! The garlic is really healthy looking and we've got some nice big heads. It was nice to have the help and fun to introduce people to a kind of physical labour they are not used to.&nbs1 read more »

This update is going to be short and sweet because we are currently at the family cottage with our fam.
