Paw-Paw Festival

The Adventure...

The Ohio Pawpaw Festival is a one-of-a-kind event. One weekend in mid September, pawpaw fanatics get together at the peak of the season to celebrate this unique native Ohio fruit. The festival has everything pawpaw – ice cream, beer, music, art, history, trees, and so much more. Smell, touch, taste, and fall in love with this wonderful tropical-flavored fruit that has been growing in America for thousands of years and is considered Ohio's first fruit.
