This years Garlic Harvest

Decided to harvest our garlic crop.  We ended up with about 300 bulbs mostly soft neck and 1 variety of hard-neck.  Soft-neck lasts longer and has smaller cloves, the hard neck has the garlic scapes, doesn't last as long but is great for baked garlic because it has only 4-5 large cloves.  Drying them inside on the fireplace mantle.

This was a test pull a week ago to see if they were ready. This is a hard neck variety

Can't wait to start eating them, Friend & family will a get a package in the mail!
