   Oh sorry, didn't check myself to be sure.
   Changing the type on the pandas side should work, like so:
   
   ```python
   import pyarrow as pa
   import pandas as pd
   
   df = pd.DataFrame(({
       'a': ['a', 'a', 'a', 'b', 'b', 'b', 'c'],
       'b': [1, 2, None, 4, 5, 1, 0],
       'c': [1.5, 2.0, 3.5, 5.0, 8.0, 10.0, 'a string'],
   }))
   df['c'] = df['c'].astype('str') 
   
   pa.Table.from_pandas(df)
   # pyarrow.Table
   # a: string
   # b: double
   # c: string
   # ----
   # a: [["a","a","a","b","b","b","c"]]
   # b: [[1,2,null,4,5,1,0]]
   # c: [["1.5","2.0","3.5","5.0","8.0","10.0","a string"]]
   
   df.to_feather('file')
   pd.read_feather('file')
   #    a    b         c
   # 0  a  1.0       1.5
   # 1  a  2.0       2.0
   # 2  a  NaN       3.5
   # 3  b  4.0       5.0
   # 4  b  5.0       8.0
   # 5  b  1.0      10.0
   # 6  c  0.0  a string
   ```
