Discover the art of growing garlic in our upcoming workshop! Garlic is one of the

easiest and most rewarding crops to grow, thriving in both garden beds and raised

beds with minimal pest issues. This class will introduce you to every stage of garlic

production, including the often-overlooked first harvest, the scapes. You’ll learn why

planting early is essential for strong root and leaf development. The workshop will

equip you with practical knowledge for growing a healthy, high-yield garlic crop.
