How to buy from us:

Scroll down and select the number of pounds you want and click on "Add to Cart" on all those you want to buy.

Order now for shipment in late summer/early fall 2012.

The garlic prices range from $16 to $24 per pound plus shipping and handling charges of $10 for the first pound, $2 for each of the next three pounds and $1 extra for each additional pound over that and we ship via U. S. Postal Service, Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation, to make sure you get your package. Our S & H charge is a weighted national average so that all buyers pay the same S & H regardless of distance from grower. These S & H fees apply to each grower you buy from.

This Farmers market is like your local farmers market.

When using your credit/debit card to buy direct from different growers, a separate order is required for each grower. You may buy as many different kinds of garlic as you want from any grower on any order but each grower requires a separate credit card transaction so that S & H charges may be properly calculated. If you want to order garlic from more than one grower, a separate payment must be made to each grower because they are independant businesses in different places.

For those who don't want to take the time to place a separate order with each grower, we will do it for you if you wish but there will be a service fee. Just order what you want from as many growers as you want on a single order and when we process the order we will charge your card the necessary additional S & H charges plus a service fee of $10.00 for each separate grower involved - there's lot of clerical work involved.

Killarney Red (Hardneck Rocambole garlic) from A One of a Kind Farm

Killarney Red is a Rocambole garlic with a rich, musky, garlicky flavor and is very hot when eaten raw.

Rocambole garlics have brownish-purplish bulb wrappers and easy to peel brownish clove covers and so does Killarney Red.

Rocamboles are valued for being early harvesting full flavored garlics that you can enjoy while waiting for the longer storing ones to mature and harvest. Killarney Red's cloves are all of similar large size with no small cloves.

Usually harvests in late June/early July and stores into mid-winter at room temp.

Grows great in the northernmost locales but the further south you get the more difficult they are to grow and forget about growing them in the south.

Picture of a beautiful Music garlic (Porcelain).

Music (cold winter hardneck Porcelain garlic) from A One of a Kind Farm

Most Porcelain garlics are parchment white but Music is an exception and can have some nice pink color to it. Music is a beautiful very long storing garlic with a very rich garlicky flavor that is only moderately hot when eaten raw but not overly hot. Grows well in most areas of the USA but grows great in the northernmost locales.

Usually harvests in late June/early July and stores into spring at room temp.
A great long storing garlic to grow as a companion to the shorter-storing Rocamboles.

Simoneti (Softneck Artichoke garlic) from A One of a Kind Farm

Simoneti is an early harvesting mellow and faintly pungent Artichoke softneck garlic that is excellent for raw eating, like pesto. Simoneti has parchment-like bulb wrappers and makes a good braider.

Early harvesting garlic that stores into mid-winter.

It is good to grow these along with Ajo Rojo so you can have both early season and long storing kinds. You may not ever run out of good garlic.

Grows well in almost all of the USA, including both far northern and deep southern areas.S

Important notes for credit/debit card users:

This Farmers market is like your local farmers market.

When using your credit/debit card to buy direct from different growers, a separate order is required for each grower. You may buy as many different kinds of garlic as you want from any grower on any order but each grower requires a separate credit card transaction so that S & H charges may be properly calculated. If you want to order garlic from more than one grower, a separate payment must be made to each grower because they are independant businesses in different places.

For those who don't want to take the time to place a separate order with each grower, we will do it for you if you wish. Just order what you want from as many growers as you want on a single order and when we process the order we will charge your card the necessary additional S & H charges plus a service fee of $10.00 for each separate grower involved due to the excess clerical work entailed.

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.

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.
This farmers market is strictly for small-scale American market gardeners/growers who live and grow sustainably..
