What Garden City loves
Raspberry shakes
Between May and September, a raspberry shake is what people in Garden City order, any day of the week. You do not have to wait for the festival to get one.
Pie at Raspberry Days
The festival has a pie-eating contest. We have no raspberry recipe yet, so our warm apple pie is below if you want a pie of your own.
