Mesick is the Mushroom Capital of the United States.

Spring brings GREAT things like Mothers Day, Steelhead fishing, beautiful flowers and woodland surprises such as tasteful morel mushrooms with of coarse 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 antique car show and 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 coarse 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.
