Garlic is an organic item which can be found by [[foraging]] on a grass tile. It can also be [[farming|farmed]], but you will not gain skill for it until about 70+ farming skill.
Garlic can be used in [[Hot_food_cooking|cooking]] and making [[farmer's salve]]. In cooking, however, they are not considered vegetables (and so cannot be used to make meals).
Garlic can be used in a [[healing cover]] with a potency of 2.
