Summer Mango Fest!

Get ready to peel back the layers of mango history and taste the sweetest part of Florida at this family-friendly event! Having originated in South and Southeast Asia, mangos find an easy home in South Florida where many of the world’s current commercial cultivars originated. Sample some of these cultivars, including the influential “Haden” variety first bred in the 1910s in a backyard in Coconut Grove, and take home your own mangos from the museum’s bounty. Plus, learn the secrets of growing mango trees from the experts—you’ll leave with a whole new appreciation for mangos!
