Maypop! The fruit of the purple #passionflower, one of two passionflowers native to Virginia. I learned about these in one of Sam Thayer's excellent #foraging books. A few weeks later, I happened to encounter a ton of them in a field at work! Thanks for the heads up, Mr. Thayer!⠀ They are pretty unappetizing at first glance, but the tart sweet citrus-y flesh and crunchy seeds are so delicious that I don't mind their alien-pod look.⠀ ⠀ #foodoutside #noviceforager #nativefruit #maypop #purplepassionflower #gooutside #eattheweeds #tasty #fruit #plants #nativeplants https://www.instagram.com/p/CIQMxkYD7tn/?igshid=1w8tf5hpdr5xp

Another fruit we tried at the MD native plant society meeting earlier this week was American Plum. It was actually tasty, though the skin is a bit tough. The fruit is quite small - similar to a cherry tomato with a large seed inside. #gardendc #dmv #nativefruit #americanplum #wildplum #picoftheday #nofilter #nativeplants (at Kensington Park Library) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1wAx44Ac7E/?igshid=xbv0ntcmy1gt

Our local supermarket had #fingerlimes, so we picked up a pack to try - and to taunt @headchefjen with our delicious native fruit. Flavour verdict: more purely acid than limes, with less complexity, and the pearls had less juice than I expected. Tasty, but the presentation beats the flavour, I think. . . . #australiannative #nativefruit #citrus https://www.instagram.com/p/Bsy3exZFTTE/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1o67wb7uk8mgq

Next up...Chokecherry jam! I literally have to run out every morning just before sunrise to beat the birds to these but it's so worth it! Chokecherries are sour but make the loveliest jam when mixed and simmered with sugar and anise hyssop ! Pictures to come...by Friday I'll have enough for about 6 magical pints! #urbanhomestead #jam #chokecherries #herbanmonk #herbanfarmgirl #gardening #fruit #nativefruit (at Cleveland Heights, Ohio)
