Here are some photos of the garlic harvest team in action last Monday (July 16). Thanks to Jen, Marc-André, Simon, Eliot, Hana and Amelia who came out to help. Zoé and her mom, Valérie (the landowners), who joined in and the farm team, especially Mathilde and Dora who put in extra time to help us pull, clean, bunch and hang 1,000 big, beautiful, delicious bulbs.
Kayla and Marc-André snipping the huge stalks to fit into the bins. The stalks this year were twice the height (and width) than last year!
