Garlic & Shallots

ALL GARLIC AND SHALLOTS ARE SOLD OUT FOR 2023!

Thank you for a great garlic season! As of Friday, September 29th, 2023 all garlic and shallot varieties are sold out and will not return to stock until Aug/Sept 2024.

We are so excited to offer garlic and shallot varieties that fit with our mission of Bringing Biodiversity Back!  We find each of these varieties to be productive, interesting, and delicious- the ultimate trifecta. We invite you to dive deeper into the wild and wonderful world of garlic diversity and try out some of these great varieties this year.

In addition to our own Adaptive Seeds grown garlic and shallots, we are excited to offer certified organic seed garlic produced by Sauvie Island Growers in Portland, Oregon; Persephone Farm in Lebanon, Oregon; Sol Cycle Farm in Corvallis, Oregon; and Myrtle Creek Farm in collaboration with Garlicana, in Myrtle Creek, Oregon. Take a peek at the individual product pages to see where each variety was grown!

Garlic and shallots are easy to grow staple crops that do best when planted September through November in our part of Oregon (and throughout most of the rest of the US, too!) For growing info, check out our ‘Adaptive Guide to Growing Garlic‘ over on The Seed Ambassadors blog.
