ZOOM LIVE CLASS
PRESENTER: JUSTIN DUNCAN

Onions and garlic are staple in the backyard and community garden alike! We are often asked: When is the best time to plant garlic and onions? Why did my garlic and onions rot?  Why did my onions and garlic not bulb? This class will cover how to prepare your garden for growing alliums.  Find out the answers to these and other practical production questions to help local gardeners plant alliums this fall season.
