Gidora's Garden has been very busy harvesting mountains of garlic in this perfect weather. Fortunately, they have a steady influx of visitors who love to help with the harvesting! They have about 4,000 heads of a few different varieties, the two biggest being Kostyn's Red Russian and their Italian Braiding Garlic. The weather has also brought a bumper crop of raspberries and some beautiful lavender flowers.
