If you like what you've seen about garlic so far and we've whetted your appetite, Why not satisfy that craving to know more by buying a few books to deepen your pool of knowledge of garlic.
From the practical growing ideas of Ron England in Growing Great Garlic to the philosophical musings of Stanley Crawford. From Lloyd J. Harris's 1960's work, the Book of Garlic to Chester Aaron's latest books, there's something for everyone. There are cookbooks with enough tempting garlic recipes to keep you aglow for a year and a few books to help you understand the historical and medicinal uses of garlic.
This 1991 book is the best presently available guide for organic gardeners and small farmers. This is the book that got us started in garlic 10 years ago any many others since.
Growing Great Garlic tells which varieties to plant, when to plant, how to plant, when to fertilize (and when not to), when to cut scapes and when to harvest-plus how to store, market and process your crop.
Growing Great Garlic covers everything - from site and soil preparation to harvest, curing and storage. It even includes the history and evolution of garlic. If you want to grow garlic, get a copy!
