Someone else mentioned pawpaws but i just want to emphasize pawpaws are the shit. Plus if you live in the Eastern US especially the Midwest pawpaw season is HERE. You have no excuse not to leave your house this moment and find your nearest pawpaw grove.
Not convinced? Congrats you have subscribed to pawpaw facts:
All in all pawpaws are 10/10 if you want to feel like a literal Animal Crossing character shaking down trees for sustenance and having a great time eating fresh fruit outdoors
Thank you for this. These are the pawpaw facts I was looking for.
Just doing my part to spread the good word.
I'd never heard of pawpaws before! Good to know, I will seek them out if I ever find myself there :D
Many locals haven’t either! They really are a hidden gem.
You seem like you know about pawpaws. I've always been curious. I'm in southern Wisconsin, are they this far north or do I need to travel somewhere?
Looking at a map of their range they might be in the very southernmost part maybe near Madison, but just barely. You’d probably had to head towards Illinois or Indiana for a better chance of finding them.
If you use the app iNaturalist you can also find geotagged groves. Taking a quick peek there’s a handful in southern WI like I said, but they really pick up once you move south.
