"Persoanlly, Im putting my money into garlic. Ive got three kinds in now for dividing into planting stock this fall. Next year around election time, I should have enough to repel the entire nation of Transylvania." You won't believe it...80% of the garlic consumed in the USA comes from China.
The World Garlic Festival is still in Gilroy, California though.
garlic is the easiest thing in the world to grow.....plant it in the fall and it readly to pull in July....here in the north anyway....
buy local folks or grow your own...
