I Need Suggestions About Local Garlic

Local folk--can anyone suggest where in Austin can I get three bulbs of garlic that still have long leaves? Dried is fine!

Would like to try a photo shoot for an Allie cover.

Try at a farmers market. Here in the north, my garlic is at the harvest stage, so down where you are it may be drying. I tend to hang mine up in bunches to dry so someone may have that kind of thing.

Yes, I did get some from the Farmer's Market to try and sprout, but they cut it off at four inches. Will try again--turns out a friend's boss is a garlic farmer, too, so that may work out well!
