Stratford Kiwanis Garlic Festival
We are excited to announce that our Garlic Festival is back for its 18th season! We continue to be dedicated to promoting our Ontario Garlic producers...but we are thrilled that our festival is expanding to offer more vendors and artisans to make your visit one to remember!
We are offering two full days of presentations that will include cooking demonstrations and educational sessions, sample tastings of wine, beer, spirits and cheese...and much more! We are pleased to have several food vendors in house, including Chef Eli Silverthorne from the Stratford Chefs School...so come with an appetite. And bring an extra bag to carry home all that fresh garlic!
The Festival is held indoors at the Stratford Rotary Complex at 353 McCarthy Rd. Stratford ON
