What you receive when ordering by the kilogram
Each kilogram contains cleaned and sorted bulbs from the same field in Gaberje. An average bulb weighs 55–70 g, so sizes vary slightly. The price is €14 per kilogram.
We prepare these bulbs for the kitchen. The largest bulbs from the harvest are kept separately as seed garlic for autumn planting.
From planting by hand to a clean bulb
Our annual cycle begins in late October, when we plant every clove individually by hand. The autumn garlic lies dormant through winter, grows in spring and is lifted in late June. We leave the freshly lifted bulbs in the field for two days so the soil on the roots can dry.
We then move the garlic under cover, where it hangs in bundles for six weeks. Once the stalks feel like paper, we clean and sort the bulbs before preparing orders.
Storage and order collection
At home, keep the bulbs in a dry, dark and well-ventilated place at around 10–15 °C. Do not seal them in a plastic bag or keep them in the refrigerator, as our garlic needs air to circulate. Properly cured and stored garlic can keep from the summer harvest until the following spring.
