The California Difference

It starts on our own farms

Superior California Garlic
Multiple studies have proven that California garlic tastes better than any other garlic, rating higher on the Brix (flavor) scale. California’s unique combination of warm Mediterranean climate and rich, fertile Central Valley fields creates the perfect growing conditions for garlic. There’s literally no other place on earth like it.

Closer to the Fields
The Garlic Company is located in Bakersfield, which is closer to our fields, as well as closer to the majority of garlic grown in California. Contrary to popular belief, Gilroy isn’t the capital of garlic production here in the Golden State (though they have a great garlic festival!)—most California garlic is grown in the Central Valley, not far from where The Garlic Company is located.

The Best California Garlic
This closeness to the fields gives us better oversight over every aspect of garlic production, from the first planting to harvest, storage, and processing. We’re one of the few garlic companies that actually controls everything, from field to shelf—which allows us to bring you the best in California garlic, whether it’s fresh, peeled, or processed.
