Homegrown garlic offers a richness of flavor and aroma unmatched by most store-bought varieties. When you grow your own, you can select from a wide range of heirloom or specialty types—such as hardneck and softneck varieties—each with its unique taste, color, and storage qualities. Freshly harvested garlic also retains its essential oils and pungency far longer than imported bulbs that may have been stored for months.

ABOUT UJAMAA SEEDS
Formed in 2021, UJAMAA SEEDS is the entrepreneurial program of the Ujamaa Cooperative Farming Alliance (UCFA). UCFA is a program of STEAM ONWARD, Inc., a 501c3 non-profit organization, organized in the state of Maryland.
The mission of UCFA is to increase diversity in the $15 billion dollar U.S. seed industry. We are committed to providing increased opportunities and support for growers from historically marginalized communities in the area of seed farming. To this end, the UCFA is working to bridge the gap between prospective BIPOC seed growers and seed companies.
SUPPORT EMERGING SEED STEWARDS
Help UCFA/UJAMAA SEEDS grow the next generation of BIPOC seed stewards by supporting scholarships for The Ira Wallace Seed School. We’re raising funds to ensure tuition is never a barrier for aspiring seed stewards from historically marginalized communities.
Your support doesn’t just fund a scholarship—it helps cultivate the future of farming.
