Mango Fest Key West supports the Key West Police Athletic League (PAL), a juvenile crime prevention program that uses education, athletics and recreational activities to tighten the bond between cops and kids. Members of the Key West Police Department donate their time and effort to help with an array of programs that include boxing and basketball.
For Keys locals, the Mango Mania Vendor Village will be open all week for food orders to pickup or deliver. The Mango Walk takes participants through Key West to try local tree-ripened mangos set out by residents (only one mango per family per location, please!). The Marvelous Mango Brunch takes place June 28 at The Gardens.
