Walnut Bottom Farm of Rockfish
Along with our many other services, we run a part time farm. We only use natural bone meal, urea, leaves & grass clippings, and cow manure as fertilizers. We don't use pesticides or other chemicals.
We are growing a variety of things, but the following are now available during their season.
Large Elephant Garlic Bulbs ($2.00 each or 6 for $10.00)
"Baseball size" Elephant garlic bulbs have cloves as big as regular garlic. One clove is enough to season most dishes. Elephant garlic is the best garlic to roast. It is mild enough to eat raw in salads, salsas, and pesto. It is easy to peel and slice. Grown with natural Bone Meal, Urea, and Mulch. One bulb contains enough cloves for a couple of dishes.
Small Elephant Garlic Bulbs ($1.00 each or 12 for $10.00)
Smaller, but bigger than a golf ball size Elephant Garlic bulb for sale. They still are at least twice the size of regular garlic. Elephant garlic is the best garlic to roast. It is mild enough to eat raw in salads, salsas, and pesto. It is easy to peel and slice. Grown with natural Bone Meal, Urea, and Mulch. One bulb contains enough cloves for a couple of dishes.
Elephant Garlic Flowers ($1.00 each)
These are the flowers on top of the garlic prior to harvest. They can be dried to use in flower arrangements. Flowers dry to a light brown color. They have a garlic smell that diminishes when dried.
Regular Garlic ($ 1.00 each)
These are the regular garlic grown along side of the elephant... A lot smaller and more potent than the Elephant Garlic.
