Bulk Garlic Bulbs for Seed Garlic - Hardneck, Softneck

Local Grown Garlic in bulk options or bulbs unless noted -. Our farmers harvests are down as winter was tough in the area. We did add 2 new garlics - SVEA and Spring Green. All garlic listed here as a winter hardiness to Zone 4. 

Garlic is a wonderful addition to our gardens. It is found in just about every household in America. It is very easy to grow in most of the United States. Our seedstock would be considered Large to Jumbo around 2” unless we have it noted. We only sell garlic that is excellent quality seed-stock. We then open our culinary stock up once we have sorted all of our harvests. 

We ship in mid to late September, depending on the variety. Please contact us to see what we have in stock 

There are 3 types of garlic to choose from: Hardneck, Softneck, and Elephant.  Here is the lowdown on what this means so you can choose the best one for you and your family. 

Types of Garlic

• Hardneck - Cold Hardy to Zones 3-7 (and colder), Produces Garlic Scapes, Produces less cloves than softnecks but is generally larger, it stores for 3-5 months after harvest
• Softneck - Great for warm areas (zones (8-9) as they don't need the cold to make cloves, store for up to 9 months, smaller than hardnecks. Our varieties are hardy to zone 4.
• Elephant - Not really a garlic but an allium that possesses garlic like flavors. A clove can take 1-2 years to split into cloves. Plant in the fall or cooler season for areas with no frosts.  Very large cloves with mild garlic flavors. 

Growing Instructions:

For those in zones 3-7, plant garlic about 2-4 weeks before your first hard frost (not your first frost, but your first hard killing frost).  Garlic needs about 4-8 weeks to root in and grow before the ground freezes. 

• Plant 4" Deep
• Space 6-8" apart
• Mulch with 2-4" of straw, wood chips or other organic mulch, but refrain from pine straw or cedar chips. 
• Weed often as garlic hates competition
• Hardnecks produce a garlic scape (flower) that should be harvested before the flower fully develops. This increases the bulb size.
