Folly Farm
About
Located at the base of Mt. Fannie in Cove, Oregon, this micro-farm is the smallest registered farm in the state. Known for its gourmet garlic and open-pollinated heirloom vegetables, it serves as a gathering place for those passionate about preserving old, hearty heirloom fruits and veggies. The farm also plays a significant role in the local community as a stop along the Grande Ronde Farm Trail and as the home of the Cove Natural Foods Co-op.
The farm emphasizes the cultivation and sharing of heirloom seeds, promoting home-grown self-reliance. Garlic scapes are removed in mid-June to encourage bulb growth, with the bulbs harvested in mid-July, aged, trimmed, and cleaned for market from August through October. The next year's crop is planted in late October.
Open by appointment for fresh garlic and garlic products, the farm offers a typical harvest season from late June through October. Visitors can arrange a visit during the summer months to explore the farm and its offerings.
