Hibernation

Winter has come to Prairie Coteau Farm.  The garden has been cleared and next year’s garlic crop was planted back in October.  The garlic is now sleeping peacefully under the soil, awaiting the far-off spring.

Winter is the time to rest and rejuvenate the mind and body after a long hard season in the garden.  And to prepare oneself for next year.

Here are some photos of garlic planting this fall.  As one season ends, we look forward to the next.  Hopefully next fall will bring a bounty of garlic to the farm!

But for now, we enjoy the quiet of the winter, and hope you do too.  Until next season, take care!
