About the festival

Annual late-September festival at Brooms Bloom Dairy in Bel Air, run by the Susquehannock Wildlife Society; free entry, a limited batch of Brooms Bloom pawpaw ice cream made from locally grown fruit, vendors, and a pawpaw art contest.

Like most pawpaw festivals, it is timed to the short fall window when the fruit ripens, so it is the rare chance to taste fresh pawpaw, meet growers, and often buy seedlings or grafted trees on the spot. New to the fruit? See what a pawpaw tastes like before you go.
