Not all Garlic is Worth its Salt
Most of the garlic produced in the US comes from the milder regions of the Northwest. Southern growers looking for garlic adapted to their area are often left out in the cold! Here at Southern Seed Garlic, we feel our seed garlic is some of the best in the market. Our garlic is tested for southern-adaptability and is 100% non-GMO and naturally grown. Our bulbs are hand-inspected at every stage and only offered for sale if it has proven to be reliable and resilient in a variety of climates.
