🥭 MANGO MANIA – The Ultimate Mango Experience

Unlike crowded festivals, Mango Mania focuses on what mango enthusiasts really want:

🥭 Taste an incredible variety of mangoes
🌱 Learn directly from experienced growers
💬 Ask questions in a smaller group setting
🎁 Take mangoes home with you


🎤 Featured Presentations
Main Speaker: Shannon Whobrey of Truly Tropical
Unfortunately, Chris Wenzel of Truly Tropical is no longer able to attend this year’s event. However, we are very pleased that Shannon Whobrey of Truly Tropical will be presenting “All About Mangoes” in her place.

🥭 Growing mango trees successfully in Florida
🥭 How new mango varieties are created
🥭 Grafting and mango farm development
🥭 The story behind Truly Tropical
🥭 Mango variety selection and cultivation tips
