Central to Garlic Town's identity is our amazing volunteers (the Stinkin' Volunteer Tie Dye Army!) and community engagement. Residents, young and old, come together to support each other, whether it's helping a neighbor with barriers and fencing, participating clean-up and set up, or volunteering on the day of the festival. The spirit of giving back is embedded in the Garlic Town's values, fostering a sense of unity and mutual respect.
We thank you for considering becoming a part of this tradition!
