The Garlic is Here!

We will be holding our annual garlic fundraiser on Saturday, September 24th at 3:00pm at the garden (5510 - 26th Avenue NE).

A bundle of four organic bulbs will be available for $10. The garlic will be selected from the 50 rare/heritage varieties grown at the McClure garden as part of our Seed Saving and Sharing program. Proceeds support McClure's non-profit, community outreach programs. We can accept cash or cheque payment upon pick-up.

Quantities are limited. For more information and to reserve your bundle, contact Alex at bundleofgarlic@hotmail.com. Reserved garlic can also be picked up at the church beside the garden on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 9-4pm and Fridays from 9-3pm.

Garlic bulbils and rounds make for great planting stock and we have them for most of our varieties. Bulbil capsules are $2 each and a package of rounds is $3. For a list of the bulbils and rounds available, contact Alex at the email address above.
