Garlic Growers Gathering

Join us for an informal gathering of garlic growers at Mark Anema and Kate Ritger’s farm near Watkins, MN.

See the Upper Midwest Garlic Growers webpage for more details

We’ll visit a garlic field, hear from Dr. Carl Rosen on the University’s new Aster Yellows research project, and have some social time.

First, we’ll congregate at their garlic patch, which doesn’t have a street address.  See HERE for details on how to find it.

Then we’ll caravan 1.5 miles to the farmstead for some social time and garlic talk.

The address there is 32404 683rd Avenue, Watkins, MN 55389.

This is a free event.

Pre-registration is required.
Do that HERE or email Jerry Ford at jerry@sfa-mn.org to make your reservation.
We do this so that we can inform you if there are changes.

This is a 201 – 301 level event and may not be appropriate for those not yet growing garlic.
