Each year our garlic, onion and potato harvests are shared out equally between members, who store them at home, and for some the garlic and onions will last until the crop for the following year.

The 2017 garlic harvest has been of four varieties, with the weight of each member’s share following the name of the variety; Arno (558g), Cristo (682g), Thermidrome (846g) and Thermidour (1,551g).

Seed garlic is our most expensive annual outlay but with with 2.4kg each to see us through the winter, this seems to be a good investment in locally grown garlic raised using organic principles.
