Once we learned how to cultivate the garlic, we started looking at "varieties," soil nutrient requirements, machinery, and each of the many cultural practices it takes from planting to putting it on our pasta. Garlic is a high-value and labor-intensive crop requiring over 20 personal/human interventions... We act as a clearinghouse of information and research data, and generally fill the void of unbiased information for the cook, gardener, and commercial producer. Our newsletter, The Garlic Press, is published about 4 times a year. We promote production, using appropriate and sustainable practices, and hearty consumption of regionally-grown garlic and all foods. We celebrate this herb by working with local members organizing festivals that combine good food, information, planting and eating material, and merriment... We are an educational, not-for-profit, informal, unofficial, unrecognized association created in 1984 over our love of good garlic food and desire to find profitable..
