How To Plant Hardneck Garlic

In this video, I walk you through my simple, low-till method for planting hardneck Russian garlic: preparing the raised garden beds, clove spacing and depth, keeping track of planting counts, and protecting the beds with a nutrient-rich layer of homemade leaf mulch and straw. Along the way, Pepper the cat supervises, the free-ranging chickens explore the garden, and we take a moment to reflect on gratitude, stewardship, and homestead life.
