Visiting the USA like any other country is such an enriching experience because you learn so much about new cultures than you ever did before. While there are many different states and cities to explore, the countryside of Philadelphia is certainly unique.

Its seasonal colours and flavours of fall come to life through a variety of festivals that celebrate the region’s fresh produce, blooming flowers, local traditions, and vibrant communities, bringing people together in a shared celebration of life.

Kennett Square Mushroom Festival

The countryside of Philadelphia produces over 60 per cent of the nation’s mushroom crop, giving the town of Kennett Square the title of “Mushroom Capital of the World.” Voted one of the 10 Best Festivals in Pennsylvania, the Kennett Square Mushroom Festival is held the weekend after Labor Day each year. Festival attendees can sample a variety of mushroom-centric foods, from fried mushrooms to mushroom soup and many other dishes, and learn about the mystical and interesting process of mushroom growing. Attendees can also visit the many craft vendors, many of whom offer mushroom-themed goodies, visit the delightful Kennett Square boutiques, and enjoy a variety of restaurant options in Kennett Square, and more. This year, the festival takes place between September 12 and 13.
