I've been thinking of maybe going to the Hudson Valley Garlic Festival just for kicks. But that woould be one more weekend away from the garden during harvest.
We've been having a great season for cabbages, tomatoes, potatoes, beets, peppers, carrots, dill and basil. The spring planting of peas and beans (remember - April 15?) did exceptionally well.
How has your season been?
I've not been on the forums all summer - too busy picking and putting by on weeks when we're home.

If you check that link franeli supplied, you'll see that,unfortunately, the supplier I use, Roman Osadca at Valley Fall Farms in New Jersey, doesn't have any Italians. I'll be placing my order w/him (mostly for the Music Czechs and German Extra Hardy) in about a month.
Funny you posted about the Garlic Festival in Saugerties, I posted (I think) the exact same link in that thread, too! I wish I could go,too. But it's just too far for me to travel. BTW: I'm sure my "guy" has a display booth there each year. Him...along with hundreds of other garlic-o-philes!
