What we grow

We have had the extreme pleasure of sharing with other garlic lovers the uncommon, exotic strains as well as the familiar, reliable ones. We have in our collection varieties that range from fiery hot to relatively mild, those that are sublime roasted and others that are unsurpassed raw. We have some with large, easily peeled cloves and others that will keep a full 12 months. They grow in different shapes and sizes and many combinations of colors.

Where We Grow

Filaree Garlic Farm is located in North Central Washington State in the sunny Okanogan Valley. We are 200 miles from the coast and 50 miles south of the Canadian border.  We have mild winters considering our northern latitude.  Our summers are typically hot and dry.  Our irrigation water is sourced from streams fed by snowpack in the Cascade Mountains.

Organic only!

We are certified annually by the Washington State Department of Agriculture. All of our garlic is certified organic. We grow most of the garlic we sell and purchase the rest from other small, certified organic farmers in Washington, Idaha, Montana and Oregon, whom we know and trust.
