Local Home and Garden Shows

The July 4^th weekend is almost here! We are well into summer and it’s been awhile since we’ve posted anything about gardens.

I just wanted to share some interesting information I recently learned about something called a Garlic Barrier. Essentially, you get a bottle of concentrated garlic diluted with 10 parts water to one part garlic concentrate. Then you spray the solution on your plants to keep away the bugs.

Have you tried this before? Did it work? The product we looked at also claimed that it would not affect the taste of fruit, veggies or vine products.

Check it out and see if it works. Happy July 4^th weekend! Don’t forget to put on your sunscreen if you spend any time in the garden this weekend.
