![]() Gourmet Garlic Sampler Assortments
Not everybody wants to buy a whole pound of each kind of garlic just to try a few kinds, so we offer several different kinds of sampler assortments.
The cultivars chosen for each sampler pack are based on your answer as to whether you want ones that will grow best in your area or the best tasting ones for the table, regardless of whether they will grow in your area or not.
Each pound contains three to six (usually five) different cultivars with one to four bulbs (usually two) of each cultivar.
Each kind is put into a separate bag with the name and a description of the particular garlic on a label on the front of the bag so you know about that particular garlic.
A two pound order will usually contain about 8 to 10 different kinds, based on availability and bulb size.
Our growers usually have during the late summer/fall season from 16 to 60 garlic varieties to choose from, depending on availability.
You might try all mild varieties, all strong or medium flavored varieties, or any
mix of your choice. Go ahead and experiment, try several different kinds.
Different growers will have different sampler assortments.
![]() Each Variety will come in its own clearly marked bag so you can tell them apart. ![]() ![]() About buying from the growers in our online farmers market
If you wish to buy sampler assortments or bulk garlic direct from the growers, please check out
completely and pay for your order from any grower before buying from any other grower in the farmers market.
All orders for garlic from the growers are shipped direct from each grower direct to you and a separate
shipping/handling charge must be made for each grower you order from.
Please do not mix orders from different growers on the same order as the shopping cart cannot then correctly
calculate S&H from multiple locations so we must manually add in the correct additional S&H charges for each
grower plus an additional $15 clerical service charge per grower involved after we receive your order.

Garlic Selections We still have plenty of garlic books, etc., available for immediate shipment from Amazon.com. The list below is typical of what will be available for sale in 2011 and will change as availability of each kind changes - we have been adding and subtracting varieties all season long. I try to keep these lists fairly current so that they can be used as a realistic guide to what we have in stock but we often sell out fast. Sometimes we sell out and before I can change this list someone places an order for a garlic we no longer have. ![]() Our secure shopping cart/card processing gateway charges all cards at the time of the sale and we can't change that. That's good for our customers because the earliest paid orders get the best selection. The last two years there were shortages caused by weather-related crop failures all over the country and only the early orders got filled as we had to cancel about 100 orders that came in later and turned away around 300 more. Early payment gives you your best opportunity to get the best bulbs of the varieties you want.
Pre-paying your order early does not guarantee we will have the garlic you have asked for since sometimes there are no available stocks of certain kinds of garlic due to nationwide weather -related crop losses,
but it does assure you an early place in line if we can get any of the garlic you ordered.
Sometimes unforseeable things happen and we can't get a garlic you have ordered, then we will let you choose between a substitute or a full refund.
If you find this unworkable for you, please use the secure shopping cart to place a mail order or a telephone order and in the customer comments section request that I call or email you when the garlic is ready to ship immediately. You can replace your credit/debit card order at that time, if we still have garlic available, the system will remember your name, address, etc. so you won't have to re-type it. I receive a copy of all telephone and mail orders the shopping cart prints for customers. It's not a guarantee but we usually have garlic long after most growers are sold out but not always. Getting the garlics you want can be an uncertain thing and we try to improve your odds of getting what you want. ![]()
We are now accepting orders for fall 2011 shipment.
We will be adding and deleting and changing the status of varieties often as varieties become available and as we sell out our stocks (We always sell out) so check back regularly to see what we currently list as available.

This Farmers market is like your local farmers market.
If you buy from a grower and later cancel that order for any reason, the credit card processing gateway still charges Gourmet Garlic Gardens the full processing
fee plus an additional fee of the same amount for processing the cancellation and also it places an additional clerical burden on us
so, regretably, we must charge a 15% cancellation fee when processing the cancellation because that's about what it costs us.
My advice is to look around among the various growers and decide what to buy from whom and then place your orders and stick with the growers you have chosen.
![]() Each grower/vendor is responsible for their own garlic and prompt shipping to the buyer. Gourmet Garlic Gardens is not responsible for any garlic sent directly from any grower/vendor to any buyer and serves only as a virtual meeting place and credit/debit card processor for the convenience of both grower and buyer. Gourmet Garlic Gardens' total liability from all causes is limited to refunding the monies the buyer has charged against their card using Gourmet Garlic Gardens as a payment processor for any specific transaction with any particular grower/vendor. ![]() Prices and availability of garlic subject to change without notice. ![]() |
![]() How Our Garlics are Grown
All the garlic for sale in our online farmers market was grown without the use of petrochemical pesticides,
herbicides, or fertilizers; only natural and non-toxic fertilizers and pest control methods are used.
Some of our growers are Certified Organic and some are Certified Naturally Grown, which we regard as equal to
Certified Organic in every meaningful way but without all the bureaucratic entanglements.
All our farmers market growers grow organically and some are Certified Organic but not all want to be certified
Organic because of the paperwork and reporting requirements and are among the best available sources of sustainable/
organic Garlic and they become Certified Naturally Grown, where the regulation comes from their fellow members rather
than a federal bureacracy.
We do not allow growers who use synthetic petroleum-based fertilizers, pesticides, fungicides or herbicides to
participate in our farmers market.
All garlic in our farmers market is grown in the USA, no imports allowed. ![]() |

Disclaimer
Garlic, like most natural plants can serve as a host for myriad mostly harmless microscopic lifeforms, some of which are called plant
pathogens or pests. Plant pathogens or pests may or may not manifest symptoms we can perceive
with our five senses. We do not knowlingly sell or plant garlic that we
think is contaminated - nor will we knowingly buy it from others but sometimes it can fool even the best observer.
We make no guarantees or warranties of any kind whatsoever, expressed or implied, with respect to our garlic. We do not guarantee or warrant the fitness, suitability or useability of our garlic for any particular purpose. We do not guarantee our garlic to be disease free nor do we claim it to be Certified Disease Free Planting Stock. We state only that the varieties we ship are to the best of our knowledge, the varieties we say they are. Any and all liability from all causes is limited to a refund of a customer's payment.
We and our growers take great care to grow, harvest, cure and store our garlic properly and we will not knowingly ship garlic that is damaged, defective or diseased in any way we can see, feel or smell. We pack the garlic so as to minimize any probability of damage in shipment. If; however, you receive defective garlic, please e-mail us immediately stating the problem and return the defective garlic to us within 30 days via Priority US Mail and we will replace it at no additional charge, or refund your money. It is our desire to provide our customers with the best garlic we can produce and enhance our reputation for excellence - but we cannot be held responsible for what happens after the garlic leaves our care.
All products are for sale to United States addresses only. We are not familiar with import-export laws and do not wish to engage in foreign trade at this time. All sales are made in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas and Texas law applies to all sales. Every state has different laws and we cannot know them all. If your state has some regulation against the importing of garlic or other fresh foods, it is your responsibility to be aware of these laws and act accordingly.
