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:

Inchelium Red - Inchelium is an artichoke softneck variety. 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.

Jupiter - Jupiter is a marbled variety. Plants have tall, wide curvaceous leaves and stout scapes that are ideal for grilling. Often dappled with dark purple, bulbs can get quite large and contain 5-7 squat tan to brown cloves with thick skins that are relatively easy to peel. Stores fairly well and tends to be quite pungent. Jupiter garlic is named for the largest planet in our solar system, indeed more than twice the size as all other planets combined. While bulb isn’t that large, it does size up considerably! If the the plants are impressive for their size, the voluminous root mass at harvest is equally so. Jupiter, the garlic, is dense and sulfurous. Thank you to Garlicana for this description! 

Chinese Pink - Turban variety. Somewhere between softneck and hardneck garlic. Some people refer to Turban as a bolting softneck. It typically grows scapes like a hardneck type does, however it does not have the tough inner core that varieties like our German White. Amazingly this variety matures a full 4-6 weeks ahead of our other garlics. This is a welcome harvest to compliment the palette of fresh food available that time of year. Its flavor is mild and smooth and mellow enough to use in any dish.  Bulb wrappers are white and conceal pink clove wrappers. Only available in the Sampler. 

Mt St Helens - A softneck silverskin large family heirloom. Mt St Helens in bred in Washington State and has large cloves, mild flavor and is an excellent keeper. Only available in the Sampler.
