Pretty psyched for garlic mustard and dandelion season here soon.

Paw-paw season is my favorite though because you need to plan around climbing trees and jumping around in rivers.

Got any great experiences you want to share?

Almost seems like you need to just selectively plant trees from separate groves next to that of others. At that point it moves from foraging into more of a horticultural territory though, haha!

From what I've read, they are pollinated by flies, and some people recommend spraying trees down with fish emulsion to attract flies. No way I'm going to blend a fish fine enough to fill a spray bottle, lol.
