Pros
- If you like garlic, North Plains Elephant Garlic Festival is one of the world’s top ten garlic festivals – according to their website. Unverified fact #1!
- There’s a playground on the festival site.
- Garlicky and non-garlicky country treats. Including garlic ice-cream.
- Free admission.
Cons
- It’s a schlep out to North Plains. Pretty, though.
- Smaller in scale than I had imagined. Think Saturday market, only everyone’s got garlic.
