Taste of Lee Tropic Fruit Festival

Announcing a new Meetup for Slow Food Greater Sarasota!

What: Taste of Lee Tropic Fruit Festival

When: Saturday, July 24, 2010 9:00 AM

Where: First Baptist Church of Ft. Myers
1735 Jackson Street 33901
Ft. Myers, FL 33901

Come experience the rare, wild and exotic at the third annual "Taste of Lee" in downtown Fort Myers.

Sponsored in part by the UF/IFAS Lee County Extension Service, and the Caloosa Rare Fruit Exchange, the event will feature all the things people loved about the previous years, but add an increased educational component.

According to Rachel Singletary, Caloosa Rare Fruit Exchange President, there will be plenty of opportunities for people to educate themselves on a myriad of topics.

She said last year the event was flooded with people asking questions, but members of the extension office were so busy they were hard to keep in one place.

"We had a lot of people come through last year and ask a lot of questions," Singletary said previously. "This year we're going to have all the extension people in one place."

Classes will include: banana propagation, pineapple production, pruning tropical fruit trees, and food preservation, among others.
