What if my garlic starts sprouting, but then it snows or freezes? Will it be okay? 👇
Don’t worry—your garlic will be just fine! This happens ALL the time, and over the years, we’ve seen firsthand just how resilient garlic is (and trust us, we’ve had some brutal winters here in Wisconsin!). If you`re still concerned, adding a little extra mulch over the sprouts during a cold snap can offer some extra protection. 🙂
You may notice some leaf damage after a freeze, but the good news is that the bulbs underground will remain unaffected. The tips might look a little damaged, but it won’t impact your garlic`s growth! 🌱

Wondering how to water your garlic this spring? 👇
Aim for about 1" of water per week—whether from rainfall or irrigation! 🌧
We don`t usually have to irrigate our garlic fields, since we *usually* 🤞 get perfect spring rainfall, which tapers off into summer storms. But during dry seasons, we make sure to irrigate—consistent moisture is key for healthy garlic growth!
NOTES:
- Keep the soil moist, NOT saturated
- As it gets closer to harvest time, taper off the watering

Question of the Week: Should I remove my mulch to fertilize my garlic? 👇
Nope! There`s no need to remove your mulch. Simply apply the fertilizer on top, and as you water or it rains, the nutrients will filter down into the soil where your garlic needs them.
This method saves you time and keeps weeds in check by blocking sunlight—so your garlic stays happy AND your garden stays low-maintenance! 👍

@quarterafarm has been getting a lot of questions about their garlic patch…like what varieties they are growing, and why do they grow so many? 👇
“First off, this season we are growing 13 varieties of hardneck garlic because…why not?!?
No, really, there are just so many varieties of heirloom garlic out there, and we just want to taste them all.
The season reason we grow so many is for biodiversity. To be able to have a mix of flavors, sizes, and different rates of maturity.
Every season, we grow some of our favorites like German Extra Hardy and some newbies.
We nerded out when going through the @keenegarlic catalog and picked out some interesting new varieties to try, including Vietnamese Red, Georgian Fire, and Pehoski Purple.”
Isn’t this just amazing?! We’ve been nerdjng out on different heirloom garlic varieties for as long as we can remember…glad we’re not the only ones!! 😋

Meet Rissy and Mike @meetusinourgarden👇
“We love Chesnok Red and German Extra Hardy for hardnecks and Lorz Italian for softneck. All together we planted just over 300 cloves to be harvested this coming summer.
Our favorite ways to use garlic in the kitchen are as a seasoning for tomato sauces, and in soups and salsas. We love it mashed into avocado…roasted and mashed into fresh baked bread…another favorite is tomato confit.
As far as preservation, when the hardneck starts to turn we begin to chop and freeze it or smash it a little and cover it in honey to ferment. This is especially helpful for our family during cold season. To preserve the scapes we chop them up and freeze in butter or oil to use for starting soups and sauces.”
We love meeting fellow garlic lovers!! Thank you for being part of our garlic-growing community, and we wish you a successful harvest this year. ❤️
