This special event will celebrate the pawpaw fruit, a tasty treasure that’s native to Missouri and many midwestern & eastern states. 

If you’ve never tried one, pawpaws are the most tropical of midwestern fruits! A delicious, custardy mix of banana, mango, and pineapple—and this fest is one of the best times to have your first taste.

EarthDance is bringing hundreds of pounds of pawpaws, pawpaw soda, cookbooks, AND…this year we’ll have Pawpaw Fest merch including shirts, hats, stickers, and more!

We’ll be joined by vendors bringing pawpaw-themed: cooking demos, cornbread, ice cream sandwiches, kombucha, tea, trees, education, art, and more!

All are welcome – no tickets or registration required!
