Raising Garlic

We are Vermont Roots Farm, located in the Northeast Kingdom at the top-right corner of the state. We focus on growing hardneck garlic utilizing organically prescribed farming methods. We feel this provides a superior product to that found in the supermarket.

Garlic Festival time!

Come on down to Booth B10 on September 28/29 at the Hudson Valley Garlic Festival.
