Cherries and garlic scapes

We are so excited to have a cherry tree. Last year the birds ate all of the half-dozen or so cherries the tree produced. This year it produced about three cups of cherries, and we covered the tree with a net. The cherries are very sour and made delicious cherry tarts.







We also harvested garlic scapes, which are the beautiful curly tops of garlic shoots.



They have a lovely mild garlic flavor and are delicious cooked like asparagus, or in eggs.
