Shrimp in Ohio? Come celebrate Ohio's Freshwater Shrimp Harvest.  

Festivities kick off Friday evening with live music and mouth-watering seafood selections. The fun continues on Saturday and Sunday with more live music, a large variety of food options, games and activities for the whole family. There will be freshly harvested shrimp from multiple farmers for sale beginning Saturday morning. Hurry-They sell out early!  

Enjoy extensive displays of live fish, frogs, turtles and other native critters. Swing by the fish farm market for a taste of gourmet smoked trout products. Join in on the Trout Feeding Frenzy, the Kids Wet Zone, sand castle play zone and wading pool fountain fun. Don't forget to visit the famous sturgeon pool, where you can pet Ohio's largest native fish. Also stuff yourself in the Shrimp Peeling & Eating Contest, buy a Shrimp Festival souvenir shirt and come enjoy the country atmosphere at the farm!
