The annual West Cape May Lima Bean Festival will be held this year on Oct. 10; rain date Oct. 11.
Always held the Saturday of Columbus Day weekend, the festival harkens back to days of lima bean fields covering a large part of the West Cape May farms. Since the 1970s the annual Lima Bean Festival has drawn visitors from around the world.
This year 100 or so vendors selling lima bean soup, lima bean stew, lima bean chili, lima bean salad, lima bean tacos, and any other lima bean product they can invent will line the Wilbraham Park at the corners of Broadway and Sunset in West Cape May.
In addition to edible lima bean goodies, artists will sell lima bean earrings, lima bean stained glass, lima bean pottery, lima bean t-shirts, etc.
There will be live music all day from Bill Bittman on the Steel Drum and Michael Davis and the Bullets. And don’t miss your chance to vote for the 2009 Lima Bean King and Queen. Crowning is at 3 p.m.
The West Cape May Lima Bean Festival is sponsored by the Shade Tree Commission of West Cape May. Proceeds from the festival go directly to maintain Wilbraham Park.
Admission is free. For information, call Diane Flanegan at 609-884-9325.
