Glorious Garlic Festival
The 22nd annual Glorious Garlic Festival takes place August 2 and 3, 2014, in the Finger Lakes Region of New York State.
The “cool-climate” garlic fest on the grounds of Fox Run Vineyards, 670 State Route 14, Penn Yan, New York, celebrates the numerous types of artisan garlic cultivated in the region.
Included are cooking demonstrations, garlic tastings and opportunities to meet the area’s artisan garlic growers and chefs — yes, there will be an array of area food producers and artists, plus live music and entertainment. Numerous varieties of freshly harvested heirloom hard neck garlic will be available to purchase, and experts will be on hand to offer guidance to the novice grower. A garlic-infused festival menu will be offered daily, crafted by Rochester chef/restaurateur Tony Gullace and paired with the signature estate wines of Fox Run.
