It Goes Well With Garlic

I shipped my first garlic of the year today and thought I should enclose a little note.

Thank you for the purchase of garlic from Catskill Merino.

It is a porcelain variety called German White.  It was grown with sun and rain from the sky in soil fertilized with aged sheep manure and weeded by hand. The seed was certified organic and was planted by hand; no herbicides, pesticides or chemical fertilizers were used on the crop or on the ground where it grew.

The heads have not been irradiated or treated (killed) to extend their shelf life as has been done to the garlic you find in supermarkets.  Catskill Merino Garlic is viable; plant a clove outside in October and harvest a head in July.

Also the garlic is drying, take it from the bag and spread it out so it can get air; as it dries it gets stronger.

Available from the Garlic Store.
