Interested in growing garlic but can't settle on which variety? We'd love to introduce you into the wide world of garlic diversity with our garlic samplers. We offer a few different options: 1/2 pound or 1/4 pound each of 4 varieties of garlic for which we have limited quantities. Please note the garlic varieties included may change depending on availability. 

Each type represents a different facet of the garlic genome:

German White - Porcelain, Hardneck Type. This is our favorite garlic on the farm here on account of its large cloves that peel easily. Bulbs are satin white over pink clove wrappers. Most bulbs will have only 4-6 cloves, saving time in the kitchen. Flavor is rich and bold with just the right amount of spiciness. Stores fairly well for a hardneck, lasting until March or April in simple cool storage. Another bonus of this variety is that it produces scapes (see photo), which are false flower stalks that can be used as a sort of green garlic (think bunching onions) in April and May.

Inchelium Red - Artichoke Softneck Type. This mild-flavored garlic is great baked. Pretty and productive a softneck originally cultivated by the Colville Confederated Tribes in Washington. As with most soft necks Inchelium stores very well for 6–9 months. Pretty purple coloring over white bulb wrappers conceal 12-15 large plump cloves. Grows to 3 1/ 2"! Inchelium grows very well in our bioregion and was adapted as Applegate Red - a major part of the Siskiyou Purple lineage.

Kishlyk - Wild garlic type - similar to a Purple Stripe from Uzbekistan in the center of origin for garlic. Very handsome purple striped bulbs have 8-12 tall, elongated crescent shaped cloves with a building fiery spicy flavor. The cloves have a bright purple clove wrapper. An exquisitely gorgeous garlic that grows sturdy and vigorous plants. Remarkably spicy, a little goes a long ways!!!

Sicilian - Artichoke Softneck Type. Prized for large, easy-to-peel cloves, mild savory flavor, and dependable yields. Adaptable across a wide range of climates, it is excellent for braiding and cures well for long storage—often lasting 8–9 months. A Mediterranean heirloom. Only available in our Garlic Sampler.
