Trim & Clean Homegrown Garlic
Join us Thursday, August 11 from 1pm to 2pm to learn hands-on how to trim and clean homegrown garlic for long-term storage.
Participants will learn how to prepare and store garlic that has been locally harvested, dried and cured. Properly cured and stored garlic can last up to 8 months! This session is a precursor to an upcoming garlic-growing workshop in the fall to be announced.
The Innisfil Seed Library is excited to partner with the Town of Innisfil and the Rizzardo Health & Wellness Centre for a free weekly vegetable and herb gardening program throughout the summer.
This hands-on program will evolve each week as the plants grow and mature. You may register for one session or the whole series!
You can expect to learn:
What plants that are best suited for container gardening
How to maintain a healthy container garden
Companion planting and incorporating flowers into your vegetable/herb garden to attract pollinators
How to harvest veggies and herbs for continuous harvest throughout the season
Succession planting
How to save seeds later in the season
Not only is this an opportunity to learn about growing food but it's also a great way to help increase food security in our community as fresh produce will be donated to the Troy Scott Community Fridges.
