2022 garlic harvest

In May we harvested our garlic crop which had grown over winter in Imogen polytunnel. We got almost 1000 good-sized bulbs out of just under one half of a tunnel, which is a good return. Garlic is available in the farm shop, veg boxes, and Sennen Farmer's Market, at £1 per bulb.

True garlic bulbs drying in our Propagation Station.

Not to be confused with elephant garlic, a close relative of the leek, which we generally harvest fresh/wet for our veg boxes during the hungry gap (lovely in a risotto).
