Palmerston North dominates New Zealand's garlic cultivation, producing the majority of the crop. The region's intense cold winters and extended warm summers create optimal conditions, fostering garlic, renowned worldwide for its superior quality. New Zealand garlic offers a distinctively fresh and juicy profile. Its signature robust pungency is perfectly encased within pristine white bulbs, delivering a potent flavour renowned among chefs and consumers alike. This unique combination of climate and quality solidifies Palmerston North's reputation as the cornerstone of the country's garlic industry.
