September is the month to 🌱plant my 🧄garlic. I have quite a few extra large heads with beautiful big cloves in each head gathered from a couple different organic suppliers

The last couple years I have a very small planting spot that has been prepared by adding bonemeal, 🐴horse, 🐐goat, 🐓chicken manure💩 to the dirt. It produced a small amount of garlic. Even though it was very small heads, I did keep some back to replant.

It is very robust tasting 🧄🌱garlic, so I’m planting it, then keep back the larger cloves each year.

This year I will be moving the location, preparing beds and planting at the end of this month. I plan to take some of the soil out of the area and incorporated into the new area.

Like my ☀️dandelions, 🫐elderberries, and 🍯honey, I believe 🧄Garlic is good medicine.
