Vegetable of the Week


Garlic flowers, or scapes, are a mild flower bud that our hardneck garlic produces as Summer approaches. A mild, less pungent version of our favorite garlic, it lends itself beautifully to stir fries, sauteing, and general cooking. We harvest the buds as soon as they appear. For those of us who need garlic in our lives year-round, this mild Spring garlic fits the bill nicely.
