New Garlic Crop available for sale 1 November 2019

It's been busy at the farm harvesting this year's garlic crop.  We harvested half the paddock by hand, the other half by trialing a new machine.  The crop is looking good and will be available for sale through our website.

OUR 2019 GARLIC CROP IS IN THE GROUND

This week we planted out our 2019 garlic crop.  Because of the extremely dry weather conditions over the past months, we did not have enough mulch to cover all the beds. This year for the first time we have used weed mat on a couple of rows.  The remaining rows are heavily mulched.  This crop should be ready for harvest in November 2019.

GOLD FOR OUR GARLIC!


Some great news: Barrington River Organic Farm is proud to announce that we have won GOLD at the prestigious Royal Melbourne Fine Food Awards in the category of “Organic Hard Neck Garlic (Fresh Produce)”. 

From our Press Release: "This award is a testament to the hard work, focus and determination of biodynamic farmer, Jan Goroncy and his team at Barrington River Organic Farm. “I am completely chuffed to win this award, because it validates my instincts as a “foodie” as well as my skills as a farmer. It was my good fortune to have encountered this beautiful organic Hard Neck garlic at a market stall some years ago – I fell in love with it immediately, and managed to obtain some seed stock to grow it. There was no specific training available for growing this variety, so I had to draw on my experience in biodynamics, my intuition, my endless research, and my passion for farming the best quality food, to achieve this fantastic outcome,” he said.

The Royal Melbourne Fine Food Awards - Australia’s premium fine food event. The Fine Food Awards attracts submissions from producers all around Australia. There are five Garlic categories, attracting more than 40 entries with nine competitors in the running for the Organic Hard Neck category alone,
