Chesnok Red Hardneck Garlic
Chesnok Red is a Purple Stripe variety of garlic, and perhaps the most beautiful garlic we offer. It has excellent flavor, especially when roasted, imparting garlicky sweetness to cooked dishes, without overwhelming heat.
This hardy garlic is relatively easy to grow, producing 6-10 cloves per bulb in tightly wrapped pinkish-red skins. Stores moderately well, around 4-6 months if handled properly after harvest.
Grown Organically at both Skymeadow Farm in Cherry Valley, NY, and, Alewife Farm in Kingston, NY.
Garlic is sold in pound quantities. There are typically 50-65 cloves per pound; each clove successfully grown will produce a full bulb. One pound of hardneck garlic can plant between 20-30 feet and will yield about 5 times that amount.
