Metro Vancouver's Garlic Festival Is Growing!
The Sharing Farm Society is proud to announce the 8th Annual Garlic Festival, a celebration of the “stinking rose”. Year’s past have drawn in a multicultural crowd with an expected attendance of more than 5,000.
This year we are honouring Sustainable Families. No matter the age, every person in a family brings something to the family table. Through mindful play, learning how food grows, healthy eating, and the environmental impact of our daily lives; families can grow sustainably.
Highlights for festival goers include family friendly fare, live entertainment, an expanded farmer’s market, cooking demonstrations, and a celebrated children’s area. The festival takes place at The Sharing Farm located in the beautiful award winning Terra Nova Rural Park. For 7 years, The Sharing Farm’s signature annual fundraiser, The Garlic Festival, has supported our food-dignity mandate to grow fresh local organic produce for low-income families.
