Have you ever eaten a Paw Paw? Now is your chance! For a limited time only, our Paw Paws are ripe and ready for eating. 

Join us on a Ranger-guided hike to learn about America's largest native fruit. During the hike, you will get the chance to eat this unique fruit and collect some to take home. 

The hike will last between 45 minutes and an hour. It is a 3/4 mile hike with slight elevation change. Please wear pants and close-toed shoes to protect yourself from ticks, poison ivy, and other potential hazards on the trail. 

Collection of Paw Paws is limited to 1 quart per person. If you want to take some home, please bring your own container.
