You’ll taste, cook, and learn all about this kitchen essential — while enjoying a garlic-themed community meal together!

• Garlic Spotlight: Discover the fascinating history of garlic, its health benefits, and tips for growing it at home — yes, you can plant it in the fall!
• Taste Test Demo: Watch and help create two simple spreads in the food processor — raw garlic vs. roasted garlic — and enjoy them with crackers.
