David Stern is the current Director, writer, lecturer, horticulturist and cofounder (1985) of the Garlic Seed
Foundation (GSF), an educational not-for-profit organization that promotes ecological production and
hearty consumption of garlic. The GSF publishes the Garlic Press, a newsletter for garlic enthusiasts everywhere.
What is the Garlic Seed Foundation (GSF)?
The GSF has grown to an international organization of
over 1,400 members, primarily centered in the Eastern U.S.
You too can become a member. (They even have cool garlic
T-shirts.) Stop by the Garlic Seed Foundation booth for
information on subscribing to the Garlic Press, becoming
a member of the GSF, or for some good, honest advice
about growing harvesting, drying, and braiding garlic.
