Not only will organically grown garlic be for sale, there will also be recipes on hand for all those cooking enthusiasts. Garlic experts will be available to answer questions on growing garlic organically, the health benefits of garlic, and the different varieties of garlic that one can grow. The Bake Sale will include several varieties of delicious cupcakes, fancy cookies, brownies, dessert breads, and more. The kids will love the hand painted pumpkins for sale and there will also be a gourmet basket drawing which includes six beautiful themed baskets such as Pasta Lovers, Italian Delight, Wine Lovers, All About Chocolate, Specialty Coffee and Teas, and a lovely Bee Keepers Basket. All proceeds from the event will benefit the Benson-Crump Memorial Community Gardens Program which is a practicing organic community garden in its 44th year of existence.
