  • 2020 California fresh run supplies will begin shipping in a very light way on Tuesday, July 7
    • New crop harvesting is underway
    • Freshly harvested garlic needs a few weeks to dry out before peeling can take place
    • New crop supplies have a strong odor, slightly more bruising, and slightly more moisture than storage crop
  • Stocks of RSS Peeled Garlic will increase the week of July 13 and July 20, with full shipments resuming the week of July 27
