A 30-Year History of Bringing Mangos to South Florida
Fairchild has been celebrating mangos during the Mango Festival for nearly 30 years. It's a weekend-long celebration of the sweet and delicious King of Tropical Fruit!
Fairchild is home to The Tropical Fruit program and the world's largest mango collection. Our annual Mango Festival is a celebration of the more than 400 varieties of mangos in our prized collection, and it all culminates in a dazzling weekend filled with mango madness.
