A Family Business Grown from the Love of GarlicThree generations of garlic growing on the Isle of WightWe've been growing garlic on the Isle of Wight ever since Granny Norah planted those first few cloves in her garden over 60 years ago. We have spent the many years since exploring its history and origins experimenting with the many different varieties here on the Island and creating a range of garlic infused products from garlic mayonnaise to garlicky chutneys and from black garlic beer to garlic ice cream.The Garlic Farm FamilyThe Garlic Farm is a family business which is owned and run by the Boswell family who have all spent many years enjoying exploring and learning about all things garlic. Colin and Jenny live in the farmhouse on site and have five children Oliver Natasha Hugo Josephine and Alexa and nine grandchildrenand counting All the Boswell children have worked at the farm growing up and now Colin and Jennys eldest daughter Natasha and her husband Barnes oversee the day-to-day business operations while their son Hugo and his wife Melanie take care of the farm site the holiday cottages and luxury yurts. Natasha has written three books about cooking with garlic and its amazing health benefits and Josephine re-joined the business in October 2023 having spent many years running The Garlic Farm Field Kitchen serving garlic-inspired food to hungry festival goers.The wonderful and dedicated Garlic Farm team is growing with the business and reaches up to 100 people in the height of the summer season. The family and team are all committed to bringing garlic flavour inspiration and information to visitors to the farm and all those who enjoy the range of Garlic Farm products across the UK.Our Farm EthosOur ethos as a business is to generate a net positive outcome across all our core values.

We work with specialist producers for all our garlicky products as well as making products on site wherever possible.We are pleased to be a Certified B Corporation.
