I just found out about this festival when we took our trip to Companion Plants. I've heard from many people that it's a great Ohio festival! We're making the road trip, so stay tuned for the full report! What is a Paw Paw you ask?

"The North American native pawpaw (Asimina triloba) is a temperate tree fruit in the mostly tropical custard apple family, Annonaceae. Pawpaw is also a common name for papaya (Carica papaya), a tropical fruit in the family Caricaceae. The two fruits are very different from each other, but some pawpaws do have a papaya-like flavor. For further description of pawpaw, see http://www.pawpaw.kysu.edu/default.htm."
