RE: 2 Minutes with the Farmer: Finding Wild Fruit on the Farm!!!

in #homesteading6 years ago

We thought about selling them. The problem with selling them is they have an extremely short shelf life. Basically once you pick them u have to eat them.
Selling young trees is a good idea though. Good thinking;)

Sort:  

I have some family down there. I'll have to ask them to bring me up a tree if they see any. Pawpaws are supposedly native to Michigan I think but I've never seen a tree or a fruit anywhere.
You could probably get like $20 per paw paw tree maybe even more.
It sucks that grocery stores only sell freakish fruits and vegetables that have a really long shelf life.

I agree I think it is really scary how long grocery store fruit last. The wild things do not last long at all really makes you wonder what they are putting on them
