28 years ago, this engineering tech asked this accounting manager out for a drink. Together, we took on the adventure of raising two boys and garlic farming. 🧄

From the beginning, our goal was always to teach others how to grow heirloom garlic. Through all these years of interacting with all of our customers/friends, our hearts are so full, because that dream has come true!

Remember to tuck your garlic in for winter! 😴

As temperatures drop, freeze/thaw cycles can push garlic cloves out of the soil, leaving them vulnerable. Mulching provides a protective, insulating layer to keep the soil temperature stable and prevent this from happening.

You can use clean straw, grass clippings, pine needles, chopped leaves, wood chips, mushroom compost, or a mix of all of the above! Apply it 3-6" deep.

There’s something magical about this moment—placing a single clove into the earth. ✨

As the cool autumn air settles in, each little clove begins its journey beneath the soil. Quietly rooting itself, preparing for its winter slumber. When spring arrives, you’ll witness its awakening—a vibrant green shoot breaking through the soil, ready to transform into a strong, full garlic bulb. 🧄

So go ahead, tuck that clove in, and soon you’ll be rewarded with garlic that’s more than just food. Happy planting, from our family to yours. ❤

Garlic is a perishable product and will naturally deteriorate over time. We know many of you prefer to wait until later in the season to plant, but here`s our two cents: waiting too long may not always be the best choice for your garlic seed, especially when it comes to hardneck heirloom varieties. Planting sooner ensures your garlic stays in peak condition! 🧄

If you do decide to plant later, just be sure to properly store your garlic until then:

✔️ store in a cool, dark place away from heat and sunlight
✔️ store garlic uncovered, such as in a wire basket or paper bag
✔️ store in a dry spot with good natural airflow—just avoid direct airflow like fans

Question of the Week: My garlic is sprouting—should I be worried? 🌱

No need to worry! Sprouting is completely normal and your garlic will be just fine. If you`d like, you can add a little extra mulch over the sprouts to give them extra protection through the winter.

Depending on your weather, the green shoots will either:

1) Die back and regrow in the spring, or
2) Stay green and dormant through the winter, resuming growth when it warms up.

P.S. The sprouting may actually be a good sign! While opinions vary, many garlic farmers and studies suggest that fall sprouting indicates strong root development, which leads to healthy, big bulbs at harvest. ❤

1) On a baking sheet combine the butternut squash, garlic, sage, rosemary, thyme, red pepper flakes, salt, pepper and a drizzle of olive oil. Roast at 400°F for 30-40 minutes until squash is tender, stirring occasionally.
2) In the meantime, sauté the onion and mushrooms in a skillet with olive oil until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms have cooked down. 3) When the squash is finished roasting, let it cool slightly and then blend with the milk in a blender or food processor until it forms a smooth and creamy sauce.
4) Combine the cooked pasta, sauce, mushrooms and onions. Serve immediately and enjoy!

This is your sign to do a garlic fertilization soak! 🧄

Don’t worry, it’s easier than it sounds. Just follow these simple steps:

2) Soak the cloves in a full-strength sterilizer for ~10 mins
3) Strain the cloves
4) Soak cloves in fertilizer for 30 mins or overnight
5) Plant your garlic!

This little extra step will give your garlic the best start for a healthy, strong harvest. ✨

Question of the Week: Should I water my garlic after planting? 💧

Yes, water your garlic a little when planting so the soil is moist, but not saturated. If you`re in a region where the ground freezes, there`s no need to water during its winter dormancy—let your garlic rest until spring. ❤

In milder climates where the ground doesn’t freeze, continue watering through winter, aiming for around 1" of moisture per week, combining rainfall and irrigation. 🌧 ...
