Can you tell me about any lesser-known local fruits or vegetables in your area that you think more people should discover? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I gotta give it to mulberries, don't get enough attention!

The buds of the flower Bauhinia variegata are both cooked amd used for pickles, spectacular stuff.

Definitely muscadines and persimmons.

Love love LOVE persimmons.

They’re a vastly underappreciated fruit.
