It’s garlic planting time, and we have a selection of hardneck garlic to indulge your culinary endeavors.

Hardneck garlic is better adapted to survive our cold winters and can be planted in the fall to grow through fall and spring and be ready to harvest in summer when the leaves turn brown. Carefully lift mature garlic out of the ground and allow it to dry. Lay them in a dry, sunny space for 7-10 days to allow the skin to dry. Below is more information on the varieties we carry, types of hardneck garlic, and info on planting garlic.
