Garlic is done curing image After letting the garlic cure for a few weeks, I cut the stems off and trimmed the roots. Ended up with almost 7lbs. We will save 4lbs for eating and replant the rest. I tried planting a few different ways at few different times last season but the best seemed to be planting early September in sheep manure packed straw. This year I don't think I'll have time to experiment with the garlic so I'll just stick with what worked best last season. #permaculture #permies #homesteading #grownostr #meshtadel #selfsovereignty #garlic #subsistancecrop View quoted note →

Garlic is planted in the food forest
image image image image
The garlic is planted and munched with straw donated to the homestead by a generous permie bitcoiner from the southwest Michigan meetup. The garlic is planted in the row which the potatoes were harvested from earlier in this summer. I didn't have time to add any additional compost so this planting will be a good indicator of the strength of the soil in the food forest with out any additional inputs. All I have to do now (besides weeding a couple times) is wait until harvest next July. #permaculture #permies #homesteading #meshtadel #selfsovereignty #grownostr #foodforest #forestgarden #garlic #garden #gardening #garlicstr #subsistancecrop View quoted note →
