We're in the Anchorage area, but our growing seasons are just so darn short there's a lot of things I haven't figured out how to do up here yet, and getting good garlic is one of them. We don't yet have a greenhouse built, but are working on plans for that in the future (other projects are currently taking priority..)bookladydavinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03577736802778608276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9104582182197134900.post-42214479842604314812012-06-09T07:52:23.812-04:002012-06-09T07:52:23.812-04:00Much better, thanks Gin!
