with Amy Leblanc

Calendar Oct 28, 2023 at 10:30 am, runs for 1 week

Are you interested in learning how to grow garlic?  Join us for this Saturday Morning Workshop on growing garlic successfully and with the least fuss. We will view the instructor’s slides which will take about an hour. We will discuss garden preparation and planting, good growing techniques, weed control, troubleshooting, harvesting and curing, AND best of all, storing for fresh use all winter and into the spring. We will also include recipes for using and preserving all the parts of the plant. Then we will head out to the Messalonskee's High School’s Raised Beds to put our hands to work planting. Bring gardening gloves and small garden hand tools if you have them, sunscreen and/or hat might be nice too.  Great for first-time garlic growers and the more experienced people as well. A starter package of 10 garlic cloves will be provided and you are welcome to order more. At the time of registration, please email janderson@rsu18.org to let her know if you would like to order and how much--$10 for a half pound and $18 for a full pound, which you will be able to pick up at class. Rain date: Oct 28. Limit 15 students.
