International Mango Festival - Miami Hotels .com
Juicy and sweet mangoes of many varieties can be had at the International Mango Festival. The two-day event, held at Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden in Coral Gables, tries to cover as much about mangoes as it can. Listen into lectures on mangoes, taste mango dishes as prepared by celebrated chefs. Visit the fruit market and learn more about the types of mangoes at the Mangoes of the World display.
How about raising your own mangoes in the backyard? People can learn to care for mango trees by attending workshops and you can buy a few mango trees at the festival. Kids will enjoy face painting, mango puppets and theatrical presentations. Enjoy a mango brunch and later at the Mango Auction, put up your bid for the rare mango collection from various foreign countries.
