About HS&C Marketplace
Connecting garlic growers and culinary enthusiasts nationwide
Our Mission
HS&C Marketplace was founded with a simple mission: to create a direct connection between small-scale garlic growers and passionate home gardeners and cooks across the country.
We believe that everyone deserves access to high-quality, locally-grown seed and culinary garlic. By eliminating middlemen and providing a trusted platform for direct sales, we help growers reach new customers while offering buyers unprecedented variety and quality.
Our Story
HS&C began as a community of garlic enthusiasts sharing tips and trading varieties. As our community grew, we recognized the need for a dedicated marketplace where growers could showcase their unique varieties and gardeners could discover rare and heirloom garlic types.
What started as a simple online forum has evolved into a comprehensive marketplace serving thousands of buyers and sellers. We've maintained our community roots while building professional tools that help small-scale growers run their businesses efficiently.
Today, HS&C is proud to be the go-to destination for garlic lovers, connecting passionate growers with equally passionate customers.

Community Support
We're more than a marketplace—we're a community where knowledge, experience, and passion for garlic are shared freely.

Our Team
HS&C is run by a small team of garlic enthusiasts, software engineers, and e-commerce experts. Our diverse backgrounds share a common thread: a genuine passion for connecting people through quality products.
We're continuously working to improve our platform, listening to feedback from both buyers and sellers to create the best possible marketplace experience.
