I would suggest that you band them at the base and set them out unbagged. They don't dessicate easily6 and are more visually appealing. I had a number of folks purchase bunches as table centerpieces. I band 20-25 scapes @ $2. To save time, band them as they are removed. In years past I have bagged them and they didn't sell nearly as well. It is a great celery substitute in potato salad.

How do you market garlic scapes? I had them at market for 2 weeks, bagged
up in 1/4 bags, and spent a lot of time explaining what they were and how
to use them. Not one person bought any. Another vendor had them, also, and
no one bought hers, either.
