Being "zero waste" means that we adopt steps towards reducing personal waste and minimizing our environmental impact.

Our community places a major focus on the 5 R's: refuse, reduce, reuse, recycle, and rot. We practice this by reducing consumption, choosing reusable goods, recycling, composting, and helping each other improve.

We also recognize excess CO₂, other GHG emissions, and general resource usage as waste.

I have more head of garlic that I could consume. I wish to freeze some. Can I keep it this way ? Will it change or become somehow damage ?

I don't think it's necessary to freeze it, but idk for sure if you'll see a meaningful change in flavor or texture after freezing.

Usually you can store garlic long-term in a cool, dark place like with other root vegetables, but you need to dry it out first.

Here's a link to a page on curing and storing garlic you've grown at home.
