Did You Know... Dade City

Did you know Dade City is the "Kumquat Capital of the World" and at one time housed the world's largest citrus processing plant? On the last Saturday in January each year, the city holds a Kumquat Festival in celebration of the small, tangy citrus fruit. The 2003 festival brought more than 30,000 people to Dade City.
