Growing Garlic. I would like to purchase 100LBS of various garlic bulbs for growth in SW PA?

Question

Any Body Know Where I Can?

Answer 1

Feel free to shop any of those well known and established companies that we have all seen for years. They all have web sites for the most part. Unless you have a supplier close enough to drive to, you will have to have them shipped, so pick one of those great all time favorite companies. If you have to have them fast, they will for a bit more money.

Answer 2

Here are a few web sites that may help you out. You could also try your local farmers markets.

You do realise no one will have garlic this time of year. All the garlic sellers start selling in August/September. but no harm is getting your order in early

I have gotten seed garlic from Seed Savers Exchange

I have not used this company but they do sell large quantities

Johnny's Selected Seeds also sells garlic. I have not bought garlic from them but do buy a lot of seeds and plants each year from them and their stuff is always very high quality

I plant around 25 pounds a year of garlic I save from year to year so have not bought any in around 12 years.

A hundred pounds of garlic is a scary amount to grow, lol! You'll have acres of it :) Anyhow, there are a few places you can try.  I've gotten mine from local farmers and just increased it every year, it is very prolific.  Starting with just a few bulbs you'll be overrun with garlic in no time.  You might want to try going to the Pocono Garlic Festival, too.

I've never ordered it from these places, but you can always try to give them a call.  I know that Cayuga Garlic Farms will sell in up to 100 pound units, and have several types.
