Allium Harvest
Jun. 10th, 2010 08:39 amBecause the storm dropped about 10 inches of rain on us - we decided to go ahead and harvest the garlic, shallots and onions a little early. Otherwise they would become engorged and split from the excess moisture.
Marcel with some of the Garlic harvest

A wheel-barrow full of trimmings from the onions and garlic.

Cleaned onions and shallots ready for distributing (fridge, restaurant, friends) :-)

Drying Garlic & keeping the backyard vampires away :-)

That last one is a lovely photo :)
