GILROY, Calif. - It's the end of an odorous era as the
Gilroy Garlic Festival will be canceled, festival organizers said.
Instead, the Garlic Festival Association plans to hold a series of smaller, more intimate events to replace the huge festival, according to the
Gilroy Dispatch.
Those changes go into effect this year without allowing for a major fragrant finale in the South Bay.
