Garlic Braiding

Garlic braiding dates to ancient Greece and continues to be practiced today as a way of preserving and storing garlic while also decorating our homes. We are anxiously watching as our soft neck garlic grows and will be harvesting it to dry soon. We look forward to gathering in September to create 5 head garlic braids together. We hope you join us!

Be prepared to be outside for the entirety of the program.
