The Cleveland Garlic Festival is one of the tastiest weekends of the year. On August 25 + 26th, Shaker Square will be filled with all things garlic. It may stink, but it sure is delicious!
Enter to win two tickets!

The Cleveland Garlic Festival takes place at Shaker Square on Saturday August 25th (12-8) and Sunday August 26th (12-6).
The Cleveland Garlic Fest is a delicious fundraiser for the North Union Farmers Market. Founded in 1995; the North Union Farmers Market is a non-profit that champions the local foods of Northeast Ohio and promotes their health, economic and environmental benefits by connecting certified producers with consumers through a network of markets.

Here are some of the highlights:

Lots and lots of garlic laced food! I can't wait to eat some  tasty garlic fries! There's garlic ice cream from Mitchell's, garlic beer, and everything in between. They have a beer tent, a wine tent and a cheese tent. Seriously, so many great eats you'll want to go both days just to eat everything!
The giant garlic is the perfect photo prop and greets you are you arrive.
Lots of fresh organic garlic to purchase. Last year we bought a variety pack of garlic and planted it. We harvested it in July and it is awesome! Can't wait to plant more this year!
The Top Chef Garlic Grill Off is a battle royale between some of our local chef for bragging rights on who makes the best garlic based dish. There are lots of free samples so you can be your own judge.
Mighty Locavores is a kid friendly play area. They can ride mini tractors, do crafts and play. Jungle BOB, Flower Clown, John Deere Combine Simulator, Bungee Trampoline, tractors and more will delight the kiddos.
There's also music, face painting, entertainers, food trucks and more. It's a stinkin' fun event for the whole family!

You might even get to meet this guy!
