| Just wondering where everyone is getting their garlic seed this year. I loved growing it so much I'm going to grow more. Last year I bought off Travis and he gave me great advice regardless of his disease. I never met him, but miss him already! |

| I use Karen & Mike (wegrowgarlic.com). Great quality, wonderful people, and they sell by the bulb. TomNJ |
|
| TomNJ, it seems that their web page hasn't been updated this year. Do you know if they will have any garlic for sale this fall? |
|
| Yes, they will begin offering this year's crop around mid-July. They sell out of popular varieties fast, so watch the website, or request to be notified when the garlic is ready for ordering. TomNJ |
|
| Do you know how much they sell it for. I have seen prices as high as $22 pound. I tried to email them and havent heard from them. |
|
| The price is per bulb and depends on the bulb size. Last year, very large bulbs (2.5"+) were $2.90 each. If you figure about six large bulbs per pound that comes to about $17.50/lb - pretty typical of Internet prices. Their bulb quality is superb! You may be able to buy cheaper from local farmers, but your variety choice will be very limited, usually just 2-4 varieties. Karen & Mike offer something like 150 different varieties. I have always had very fast replies from Karen to my emails, but this is harvest time so they may be very busy. TomNJ |

| Has anyone heard of South Road Garlic Farm? |
