Spring Garlic

Spring garlic has a delicate, mild flavor that contrasts with traditional garlic's pungency. The young bulbs and greens are tender and crisp, with a subtle sweetness. Spring garlic is perfect for brightening up dishes like salads, pastas, and herb-infused recipes. Its vibrant green leaves add a pop of color and freshness, making it ideal for springtime menus.

Grown organically by Comanche Creek Farms in Chico, CA.
