What a great weekend we had.

On Saturday we visited the Stratford Garlic Festival where I picked up some garlic to plant in the garden for next season’s enjoyment. Unfortunately I got a bit carried away, again. Remember the 7 varieties of potatoes? Well next year is going to be a similar experimentation year for garlic as I picked up several different varieties of garlic to try. While at the festival we also purchased some bison garlic sausage and pepperettes and some waterbuffalo patties, both from local vendors.

Sunday found us visiting the St. George Applefest. Home we came with fresh apple cider and local maple syrup.

Perhaps next will be the pumpkin festival? Consider visiting your own local fall festivals, supporting local farmers and businesses that are in your own community.
