Australian, organically grown produce
Located in the Southern tablelands of New South Wales, Riarla Farm's cold winters are perfect for our garlic to flourish. We grow our garlic using regenerative farming principles, including green manure crops to improve soil nutrition, support soil biology and enhance water holding capacity. We also make our own compost and liquid fertilizer so we know exactly what goes into our soil and therefore, our delicious garlic. Braided garlic and black garlic are part of our product offering.
We are members of the Braidwood Garlic Co-op, where we share resources, knowledge and skills with other members so the community can continue to grow beautiful Australian produce.
Offering a full range of garlic products
We grow Monaro purple, a hard-neck, turban group garlic, through winter and harvest in early November. Garlic will be available after curing in fresh air for about four to six weeks and will store for about six months. Monaro Purple is a versatile type, with a sweet nutty flavour and moderate heat. Its great used in all cuisines, roasted whole and smoked. We also sell braided garlic which make a lovely gift.
Last, but by no means least, we produce gourmet black garlic paste. Black garlic began its journey in Korea, but the world is catching on. Our temperature and humidity controlled method creates beautiful umami flavours and a smooth mouth feel. It is amazing with eggs, on steak, in soup, winter casseroles or with a cheese platter and a glass of wine.
