Grown herbicide and pesticide free, Organic Marne Garlic is committed to using no chemicals whatsoever. Our garlic thrives in river flat soils, perfectly suited for its growth. We prioritize enriching our soils by following permaculture principles and utilizing our own worm products and fish emulsion made from locally sourced carp. To maintain the highest organic standards, we employ 100% organic weed mat and devote considerable manual labor to weed control. With the ideal conditions of heavy frosts in winter and hot dry days in summer, our garlic develops a rich, full flavor. For those seeking a milder taste, our Elephant garlic adds a delightful touch to salads and mashed potatoes. However, our favorite way to enjoy it is by roasting whole, unpeeled cloves, allowing them to be effortlessly mashed with a fork on the plate – an absolute treat! When properly stored in cool, dry conditions out of direct sunlight, our Elephant garlic can keep for up to 12 months.
