So, yesterday I took the day off to celebrate my 54'th birthday!  It rained most of the day but it was nice to kick back and relax!  I spent the day reading some new books I checked out from the library and eating farm fresh veggies!  Heaven!

All the garlic has been harvested and is now in the process of curing.  The bulbs of these hard neck beauties are huge!  I'll be saving the very largest of the bulbs for planting stock for next year but that leaves plenty of premium sized and large bulbs for your eating pleasure!  The garlic comes in six varieties - Georgian Crystal, Polish Jenn, Northern White, German Extra-Hardy, Unexpected, and Gary's.  There is a story behind each and I'll tell it soon - but now have to get ready to run up to the farm to harvest for this week's sales!
