Lenexa Spinach Festival

The Lenexa Spinach Festival celebrates the city's quirky heritage as the Spinach Capital of the World back in the 1930s. This free, family-friendly gathering at Sar-Ko-Par Trails Park brings together local food vendors, live music and entertainment, craft booths, and activities geared toward kids. You'll find seasonal recipes, fun contests, and plenty of reasons to explore what makes this community unique. Plan for a full morning or afternoon outing—the festival runs from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and costs nothing to attend. Beyond the food and entertainment, there are activities designed to keep children engaged throughout the day. Whether your family enjoys live music, trying local flavors, or browsing handmade crafts, this event offers a relaxed way to spend time outdoors and connect with your neighbors.
