In Southern Idaho, seed garlic is planted in October and harvested in July. We begin taking pre-orders on June 1st and begin shipping September 1st. If you don’t want to get your garlic the first part of September we’re happy to keep your garlic in our temperature and humidity controlled cooler until closer to your planting date, just specify a shipping date in your order notes!
