Can you smell that smell? It's Garlic Fest at Olde Mistick Village

Don't miss this stinkin' festival!

And we mean "stinkin'" in the best possible way.We're talking, of course, about the seventh Annual Garlic Festival at Olde Mistick Village this weekend. That gorgeously pungent aroma of garlic should be wafting and billowing all around the area, thanks to fresh garlic sold by local farmers and garlic-infused dishes from area restaurants, includings include Beachside Catering, Mystic Diner & Restaurant, Voodoo Grill, and North End Deli.

The Denison Pequotsepos Nature Center will present a birds of prey program and a My Dog's Place an obedience and training show. Music will be by the Sue Menhart Band, the Munsell Brothers, Ken Atkins & the Honky Tonk Kind, Green Tea and EasyBaby.
