Szydłów is Poland's plum capital. The promotion of the fruit which has come to symbolise the municipality is enhanced by the Plum Feast which is part of the Days of Szydłów. Plums and prunes, plum preserves and – made according to the ancient recipe – the Szydłów slivovitz have made the town famous and served to promote the region. Participants in the Plum Feast will enjoy many attractions: plum and plum preserve tastings, a demonstration of ancient fruit stick-drying methods, exhibitions of fruit farming equipment and pest control methods as well as folk handicraft sales and performing artists in concert.
