WHEN TO SEE THE GARLIC GROWING

Planting is April to June, harvest begins early November to New Year. 
Best time to see garlic in the field is before harvest in October when the plants ​really display their varietal differences.  Book a farm visit   
Self serve ​Farm Gate Garlic sales from December through summer.
