Only .10 each???? I would not even bother for that. I sell my garlic for
$1.50/head and I am organic, although not certified. I am sold out in 3
weeks. But I only have about 3300 heads, nothing like you by the sounds of
the scapes!

I get $.18 each (a certified organic, wholesale price), through the
marketing co-op I am a member of. These are then sold to restaurants for
$.27 each.

I sold 2300 to a CSA farm for their members (I also supply the garlic bulbs
for this CSA farm) at $.10 each. This seemed like a lot of work for the
price and I plan on asking them for $.15 each next year. I feel OK about
taking a lower price from them because, with CSA, the sale is gauranteed
ahead of time and I do not have any wasted effort or marketing expenses.
