JBR Vineyards presents their Fourth Annual Pawpaw Festival on Saturday, October 7, 2023 from 12:00-5:00 PM and on Sunday, October 8, 2023 from 1:00-5:00 PM.
Celebrate all things Paw Paw while sipping delicious wine and listening to amazing live music! Learn about this native Appalachian fruit, a relative of the Papaya, that was George Washington’s favorite dessert (chilled paw paw) and which Mary Draper Ingles ate on her long way home.
Wonder through the pawpaw patch with an excellent glass of wine. Listen to musician Leslie Brooks while sitting in the sun or under the tent. Try some paw paw products including mead, pawpaw nut bread and pawpaw jelly. Start your own pawpaw patch with saplings available for purchase for $10.00 (cash only).
