Join garlic-lovers from throughout New England as they come to sample food and crafts from 50 different vendors all made from -you guessed it- garlic and herbs!
Everything from garlic ice cream to garlic jelly, pickled garlic, roasted garlic, garlic braids and, of course, plain garlic bulbs of every variety will be available for sampling and purchase, along with planting and braiding demonstrations as well as cooking demonstrations.
Herbalists will also be on hand to take visitors on "weed walks", where you can learn the valuable uses of every day weeds. For aspiring gardeners, garlic growers, garlic-lovers or those simply looking for a fun way to spend a Vermont end-of-summer day, the event promises something for everyone.
Activities this year include Garlic Golf, a hay maze, face painting and hair braiding and other great children's activities. Wander around the spacious lawns sampling garlic delicacies and enjoy the festivities. Relax at the Beer and Wine Garden under the tent listening to live music both days.
Admission: $5 per person per day - or - get a 2 day pass for $8; Children 12 and under are $1.00.
