Default Northern Growers - Bananas you can eat!

I've heard wonderful things about growing your own bananas, but or those of us who live far north of the usual places like the tropics, or California, Florida and such, how many folk growing northern Bananas (like Ohio, DC, PA, MA and such) actually have a long enough outdoor season that you get to enjoy the fruits of your beautiful plants?

I saw Sandy's greenhouse ice cream banana fruit in Muncie IN - they look very cool, but I mean really outside, or perhaps in moving containers ...

If its not going to happen with my pot bound ice cream bananas, thats ok to, its an amazing looking plant that we are having great fun with, but if there are actual cool climate plants we can get fruit from, that would be very nice as well.

No flames meant to anyway, just seeking enlightenment on these delightful darlings ...
