Menton Lemon Festival
France’s lemon capitol, Menton, holds a festival every year to celebrate their beloved fruit. For several days, the city runs a parade with citrus floats and displays giant sculptures made out of lemons and oranges. Local artisans sell crafts and gourmet foods with an emphasis on edibles made from, what else, lemons!
Next year, the festival runs from February 13 - March 1, 2009 and Menton is located on the French Rivera, not a bad place to be in the winter!
