Grow Your Own Organic Garlic!
Monday, July 7th, 2008
Since we started offering it for sale over 5 years ago, garlic has proven itself time and time again to be one of our most popular fall products. Affordable, relatively easy to grow and well loved by many; garlic is a worthy addition to any garden.
This year, we have a “bumper crop,” if you will, offering more than a dozen different varieties (most of them organic!), with types suitable for nearly all tastes and growing conditions.
For the beginning garlic grower, you can’t go wrong with the old standby: California Late White (or Early White, which is quite similar). Both of these are the types you will typically find in your local grocery store, and are perfect to help ease yourself into the wide world of garlic growing.
For the more adventurous types, you can choose from some amazing varieties for all palates – you can try Music for a great flavor, Chesnok Red is great for those seeking a more full-bodied taste, or for the truly daring of tongue, Bogatyr will challenge your taste buds to a duel.
Plant in Fall, and you can expect a crop of fresh, tasty garlic in late Spring. You will yield tremendous results – one clove will net one new bulb, which can turn around and be replanted for the next year’s crop. And, best of all, our seed garlic can also be eaten right away. Buy an extra pound or two for cooking or baking over the winter, while your crop grows, and make those Gilroy folks jealous over your new plants!
Get your order in now, for shipping in late August.
Every year, we run out of several varieties before we even receive our stock in our warehouse. Don’t miss out on your chance to get the best types!
