What's left to garden?
Traditionally, October in New England is harvest time, but garlic remains to
be planted. In New England, garlic is best planted from October to November
before the ground freezes. Buy a bulb of garlic at the grocery store or pick
up specific varieties (hard neck? soft neck?) at the garden supply store.
Break off the individual cloves and plant each root-side down. By late
spring, you'll have a bulb for every clove, plus delicious garlic scapes.
What's left to do in the garden? Attend a cool workshop on
