What's the #1 thing to do at the Minnesota Garlic Festival? Get great garlic, of course!

Did you know that, if stored properly and if well-cured by the grower (which all 17 festival growers do), garlic can be stored for months in your kitchen?

Plus, you can get seed garlic to plant this fall from growers whose bulbs are already acclimated to our regional conditions!

You'll have more than 50 varieties to choose from, so be sure to stock up at the festival THIS Saturday, August 9! Tickets are on sale now online, and available at the gate. Visit www.mngarlicfest.com for all the details. See you there! 🧄

Did you know there are TWO festival entrances this year?
We like to think this means that you can get to the garlic and good times twice as fast.

North Entrance:
840 Century Ave. SW, Hutchinson, MN 55350

South Entrance:
Turn north off of Airport Road (also know as County 8 & 15) at the entrance that is west of the roundabout at MN Hwy 15 and Airport Road.

-> There is construction at County Road 115 (Airport Road) and County Road 25 (Jefferson Street), plan ahead!

See you on Saturday in Hutch!
