Farmers’ market celebrates all things garlic this Sunday

Tiverton market is hosting its inaugural ‘Garlic Roast’, with garlic-themed foods and creations

The Tiverton Farmers’ Market is hosting the season’s harvest and all things garlic with its first “Garlic Roast” this Sunday, Oct. 15. The market is open from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at its winter location. Organizers decided to switch venues this week because of weather forecasts, so the market will not be held at the Town Farm Recreation Area. It takes place at Tiverton Middle School.

Visitors will have a chance to see and eat everything garlic — from fresh garlic bulbs for eating and planting, to garlic infused specialty items, such as handmade sausage and pepper marmalade sandwiches, empanadas, pizzas, garlic focaccia breads, garlic honey, sauces, jerky, prepared meals highlighting garlic and more. Vendors will be infusing garlic into unique foods and sharing them.

Spoon and Board is stirring up a farm-to-table roasted garlic sausage special, with locally sourced pork from Gnarly Vines Farm, roasted garlic from The Neighborhood Farm and savory garlic bread from The Cheese Wheel Village.

The Cheese Wheel Village will have fresh homemade baguettes smothered with roasted garlic, garlic butter and fresh grated parmesan, as well as an assortment of garlic cheeses, garlic butters, garlic bread, garlic cashews, and maybe some garlicky meats, too.

The Perfect Empanada will be madly roasting fresh garlic and infusing it into their empanadas.

Dee’s Little Sweets will be making a one-of-a-kind, gluten-free, black garlic cupcakes.

Netties Bee’s of Rochester, Mass., has created a garlic honey, made from their local raw honey infused with their own grown garlic. It is antiviral, antibacterial, combats colds and flu, fights and prevents infections, boosts the immune system and also doubles as a baste in cooking.

Brightside Seafood is offering an oyster special deal. Get 6 oysters and a custom shucking knife for 15$ or 12 oysters and a shucking knife for 25$.

All-day happenings include garlic information and questions with The Neighborhood Farm, a Garlic Giveaway Basket from the Tiverton Farmers Market (sign up at the market table) and a Kids Art & Crafts Table offered by Tiverton Celebrates Volunteers.

There will also be live music with Virginia James. The market takes place at Tiverton Town Farm Recreation Area, 3588 Main Road.
