In the Mississippi River Hills of Southeastern Missouri

The Mississippi River Hills Association (MRHA) seeks to develop, connect, and market products that are produced within the region.
Together we seek to strengthen our regional economy while retaining all that is good, for the benefit of future generations.
We also encourage visitors to tour the region, people interested in learning more about rural America - the unique history of the region,
the cultural flavors, the river and the great outdoors, and how great fresh foods can taste.

Mayfest!

The annual Perryville Mayfest will be held May 8-9. This year there's a fun fiesta theme, complete with a burrito eating contest and pinata bust. All the usual...and in some cases unusual...elements will be present as well, including the bed race, dog parade, antique tractor show, carnival, quilt show, 5K run, craft fair, garden club plant sale, and of course plenty of live music and good food. It all gets underway with the parade from Perryville Park to the downtown square on Friday. Come and join us, you won't regret it!
