Lunch & Learn: The Power of Garlic with Dr. Silvia Abel-Caines at Barrington’s White House – Barrington, IL

Discover how one of nature’s most humble ingredients can play a powerful role in personal and planetary health. Dr. Silvia Abel-Caines, founder of Garlic eSCape Farm, brings her expertise in organic farming and nutrition to this engaging talk about the health benefits of garlic, the inspiration behind her Wisconsin farm, and how medicinal herbs and nutrient-dense foods can support lifelong wellness.

Learn how her backyard garden of garlic bulbs grew into a certified organic operation — and how garlic became her unexpected escape during the early days of the pandemic. From soil science to superfoods, Silvia will share her insights on sustainable growing practices, plant-based nutrition, and the gut-soil connection that underpins it all.

Bonus: Attendees will enjoy a sample of Garlic eSCape products and get practical tips for utilizing garlic at home.
