Cape May Best Bets

Lima Bean Festival
How many festivals sell hats and tee shirts adorned with the lowly lima, serve up lima bean soup and crown a lima bean king and queen? This little bit of Americana has been going on ever since West Cape May was the lima bean growing capital of the region. Most of the limas are gone, but the traditional fall festival remains.
