Garlic in your box today / Tomato blight

Is Elephant garlic that got stressed (cold winter?) and made 1 big bulb instead of cloves. It's a mild garlic, very juicy and can be chopped and used like any garlic.

Tomato blight is widespread. I heard today - Baldwin, Traverse City, East Lansing Student Organic Farm. Everyone is bummed. MSU says they don't think it carries over in the soil, tho. The University specialists have tried to save about 1/3 of the organic farm crop there. Jeremy also said they are picking all their green tomatoes and seeing what ripens, so maybe we will try that.
