Garlic Town, USA sees epic turnout in second year within Bennington downtown

Article originally in The Bennington Banner (September 5, 2021) written by Makayla-Courtney McGeeney // Thousands of garlic lovers descended on downtown Bennington on Saturday for Garlic Town, USA. This year’s single-day Labor Day weekend tradition follows the scaled down version of the annual Southern Vermont Garlic and Herb festival that hosted roughly 3,000 attendees in 2020. The reimagined event combined a variety of free activities and entertainment hubs as well as ticketed “cloves” where garlic vendors, artisans and food trucks resided.
