The Ultimate List of Delmarva Festivals Spring/Summer 2017 (Delaware)

Spring every year comes the blooming of flowers, growing of grass, the chirping of spring birds and more festivals and parades than I can count.

Here in lower part of the Delmarva Peninsula (See map) the weather has been a bit crazy, High 70’s in February then snow in mid-March. But we are ready to welcome in the spring and warmer weather any time now.
