(Question)
Where can I buy organic garlic for planting, is it different then what we buy for consumption?
(Answer)
Toronto Master Gardeners do not recommend any particular vendors but here is a link to the Toronto Garlic Festival which has information on growing and buying organic garlic.

Organic garlic sold for consumption should be marked as such. To grow garlic, you plant the cloves, the sections of the bulb; each clove will produce a new bulb. For in-depth information on growing organic garlic see
