Spring brings GREAT things like Mothers Day, Steelhead fishing, beautiful
flowers and woodland surprises such as tasteful morel mushrooms with of
course our annual Mesick mushroom festival. Mesick MI. is the mushroom
capital in the United States. Come enjoy our adventurous fun filled days,
for people of all ages. Carnival rides for the thrill seekers, crafts and
hobbies or flea market for treasure hunters, ball games for the players.
Several contests for mushroom hunters, lucky duck race, horseshoe toss,
horse  pull.
View our Grand Parade. Have your blood pressure or sugar tested before
tasting lots of good food like BBQ chicken, baked goods, pasties, a fish
dinner or taco night and of course the usual fair goodies. Then wash it
all down at our beer tent. Look for cash at our money hunt, games for the
game boys or girls and (not the hand held kind). But you can walk around
holding hands with your loved ones, or try our 5 K walk/run. And for all
you mud pie makers as kids. Don’t throw mud with your (words) tongue or
your hands. Watch the Mug bog racers throw some really wet earth up into
the air. It’s safer this way. So start your engines, let the mud fly, as
we ride rides and reach for the sky. The sky truly is the limit for quality
family- friendly activities, fun, finds, fast thrills and food at our great
hometown festival.
Mesick is a small town, with a big heart. Come join us so we may help stimulate
your heart, bring back old remembrances or make new lasting memories. Hope
to see you here. Arrive early so you can get out to find those tasty tidbits
yourself or buy some to take home from our local mushroom hunters.
