This West Coast City Is the 'Garlic Capital of the World' - With a Theme Park Featuring Fruit- and Veggie-inspired Rides
Briefly

"The scent of fresh garlic, as you pass field upon field of growing plants, is unmistakable. The roads into the city are dotted with fruit stands, selling berries picked that day, freshly baked pies, and produce."
"When I first moved there, I was thinking, 'Wow, my neighbor is an amazing chef. The air outside just smells like the cooking from her window.' It took me about a week to figure out that the aroma of Gilroy really is garlic."
"Gilroy's historic downtown is full of murals and public art celebrating its biggest export and excellent restaurants serving up garlic for every meal. It's a city that leans into its agricultural legacy."
"Gilroy Gardens is a theme park with a distinctly farm-grown vibe. It started as a recreational area for locals and now celebrates the local bounty, even featuring a quirky garlic ride."
