This event is hosted by the Maine Tasting Center.
Calling all garlic lovers! If you want to grow your own garlic (or grow bigger and healthier garlic), this is the class for you! This class will be taught by Meredith Coffin, a large-scale garlic farmer from Freedom Maine, and a popular speaker at the Common Ground Fair.
In this class you will learn about the varieties of garlic that grow best in Maine, how to prepare the soil, care for your plants, when to harvest and how to cure the bulbs.
You will have an opportunity to taste different varieties of garlic and will take home seed garlic ready for planting.
Meredith will also share some of her favorite ways of eating garlic and best ways to maximize the shelf life of your garlic.
Want to really immerse yourself in garlic? Sign up for the afternoon garlic jam workshop, too, to learn more delicious ways to preserve your garlic harvest.
This is a ticketed class and advance registration is required – sign up today at www.mainetastingcenter.com
