Hey @Mukroni ,

I just spotted your post @Mukroni , outstanding images of the Shallots harvesting. Thank you for sharing.

I like Shallots lots, especially when cooking because of its sweeter and delicate flavor than the regular onions.

You live somewhere near those fields, or you were just passing by?
