*Acres U.S.A. Editor's Pick

The first garlic book written specifically for organic gardeners and small-scale farmers

Growing Great Garlic is the definitive grower's guide written by a small scale farmer who makes his living growing over 200 strains of garlic. Commercial growers will want to consult this book regularly.

The author tells us:

  • Which strains to plant
  • When to fertilize
  • When to plant
  • When to prune flower stalks
  • How to plant
  • When to harvest
  • Plus, how to store, market, and process the crop

Growing Great Garlic makes a genuine contribution in the field of garlic classification that will help the public recognize several distinct varietal types of garlic.

Industry Reviews

"His conversational style makes this book accessible to the layperson while his wealth of experience makes it useful to even the experienced gardener. Despite having been written over 20 years ago, Growing Great Garlic remains the standard gardening guide for anyone interested in the organic cultivation of garlic. [...] Give Engeland a chance and he will show you that organic garlic can be an exciting crop of diverse shapes, colors and flavors."-Southern Exposure Seed Exchange


"This book provides thorough explanations and answers to the "why" and "what if" questions you may have found yourself wondering. After reading this book, I am eager for my seed garlic to arrive in the mail and plan to incorporate lessons that I learned reading this book as I prepare the bed, plant, and mulch for winter. [...] I anticipate this will be a well-used reference book on my shelf with many notes about my own garlic growing experiences in the margins."-Alaska Master Gardener
