We sell organic garlic at our local Orleans Farmers' Market since 2008. Our tiny little farm stand, "Caroline's Corner" came into existence soon after my youngest daughter was born. It was partially a need to spend more time with my children, and also to explore the concept of Backyard Homestead or urban farming, as well as a recovery journey for me as a former fundamentalist. As I turn cautiously to my community and my family, I experience joy and elation, and after the 8th season, I feel confident that this local organic farming experience should also encourage anyone out there to just try it. Find that time with your children and do the right thing, and grow good garlic wherever you are!

You can manipulate the planting time a little. We have fairly discussed everything you need to know for a bumper garlic growth. If you follow our book for planting garlic cloves, you will perhaps end up having decent crops. Roots should start growing soon after you plant. Your aim should be to get good root development before the plants become latent. Green shoots might occur in the fall. Garlic is one of the healthiest vegetables which is popular in Mediterranean and Asian cooking. Garlic is easy to grow where you will be blessed with plenty of fat and juicy garlic bulbs. All you have to do is find a sunny site. However, buying seeds needs careful measure. Garlic is not at all hard to grow. In fact, growing garlic is approximately easy. It has a few significant demands that are conveniently met. Decent soil with adequate moisture, planting and harvesting the garlic is what we need at the right time. Studies provide us a better understanding as a whole about the amount of garlic that is needed for blessing us with the health benefits. In our detailed chapters of the book, we have discussed health benefits besides the planting method for garlic.
