Yes @sallyg they do take a bit of room. When I bring one in from storage it's a cooking day - soup and a couple of quick breads and a bit as a side dish. I don't can any of my garden's produce but I do make use of a Foodsaver and freezer.
Remember, it is dangerous to the environment and ILLEGAL in MANY states (CA is one) to mail plants/bulbs/cuttings in. Let’s all practice Do No Harm while we walk this earth and find other ways to connect to one another through gardening.
