The best part of the Gilroy Garlic Festival isn't the food. Or the entertainment. And it's certainly not the blazing California sun. The best part is, without a doubt, the people that make it all happen ... and maybe the food.
A phalanx of 4,000 volunteers descend upon Christmas Hill Park every year and transform the green into a maze of food booths and stages. From trash removal to parking to filling the bellies of more than 100,000 garlic lovers, the volunteers keep the festival running smoothly, and some have been doing it since day one.
In this video, we talk to some of the volunteers that make the festival happen.
