You can publish whatever you want in the Offcanvas Section. It can be any module or particle.

By default, the available module positions are offcanvas-a and offcanvas-b but you can add as many module positions as you want from the Layout Manager.

You can also add the hidden-phone module class suffix to your modules so they do not appear in the Offcanvas Section when the site is loaded on a mobile device.

Growing Garlic

Thank God for Garlic! 
About 3 years ago, I started growing Garlic. I started out going to BJ's Garlic Farm in Oberlin, Ohio to buy my seed garlic. (Which is nothing more
than cloves). I started out with a variety called Bogatyr,  and Italian Red. Not knowing anything about Garlic, I planted 100 cloves. Man, did I get
a lot of Garlic, as you cen see below, my first harvest. I am amazed at how many varieties of every plant we eat that God provides. I'm thankful.

Each year, I plant my Garlic in October. This year (2025 Fall) I planted on Oct. 1st. After the previous year's garlic has cured (about 10 weeks in
my dry basement) I separate all of the cloves leaving the skin on and pick the biggest cloves to plant in my garden. I read this is the best way
to get large heads the next year. The rest, I put in my dehydrator to make powder, and of course a lot for my pasta sauce. My wife swears it
is way better than store bought, and I have to agree.

                   This is what they look like early spring.                                                                                                     Well on their way

 The scapes will start appearing around early-mid June. Everything I have read says to remove them because they take energy away from
the bulb. Many people eat the scapes, so I decided to try them. I dehydrated them and they did not do anything for me. They might be 
better fresh, but I will just wait for the garlic.

                                    That's my 2 cents on Garlic. Dont know if it is right or not, but it works for me. Thanks for looking.
