Where Is Garlic Cultivated?

Our bulk garlic is cultivated in California’s San Joaquin Valley by experienced, multi-generational farmers. Managed by our experts from seed to factory, you can rely on our garlic for exceptional food safety, consistent quality, and complete traceability.

All of our wholesale garlic is grown from our unique virus-free, non-GMO garlic cloves, developed through in-house seed breeding using tissue cultures.

The garlic meristem is harvested from garlic cloves and grown using hydroponics to ensure that the seed development is virus-free. The seed is then transplanted in nurseries and used to grow our garlic crop. Our high yielding garlic produces more cloves on fewer acres of land—minimizing our use of water, fuel, fertilizer, and pesticide.

California garlic has always set the gold standard for quality worldwide, and we are leading the way in sustaining that cherished heritage.

History of Garlic

For over 5,000 years, garlic has been used for everything from medicine and food to aphrodisiacs to money. It is one of the oldest cultivated plants in the world and is believed to be native to Central Asia, South Asia, or Siberia. In Ancient Egypt, the spice was so popular as payment for laborers that shortages in garlic would halt pyramid construction.

Garlic has long been a staple in the cuisine of Central and East Asia, but it wasn’t widely used in the rest of the world until trade routes brought it to Europe and the Americas. From then on, garlic was embraced as a pungent and flavorful addition to many ethnic European dishes, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, Italian and more.

In the U.S., garlic consumption has more than tripled since the 1940s. As demand for savory and functional foods continues to grow, so does the need for reliable garlic wholesale suppliers and high-quality bulk garlic.
