Today, we're diving into the history of blueberries and huckleberries, from their ancient roles in indigenous cultures to their rise in modern agriculture. Explore the fascinating evolution of the canning industry, spotlighting how the Ball Brothers Corporation and a pivotal court case in 1870 revolutionized food preservation and blueberry production. Discover the intriguing story of the huckleberry industry's boom and bust during the early 20th century, shaped by economic forces and wartime priorities, while reflecting on the contrasting sustainable practices of indigenous communities. Join us as we celebrate the groundbreaking work of Dr. Frederick Coville and Elizabeth White, whose innovative efforts in cultivating blueberries transformed barren lands into lush, productive fields. Their collaboration laid the foundation for today's blueberry industry, with a nod to the USDA's role in promoting cultivation and breeding advancements. From understanding the perfect conditions for blueberry growth to exploring the whimsical world of whortleberries, this conversation is as informative as it is entertaining. With humor and heart, we invite you to consider the cultural and historical significance of these beloved berries and to rethink how we integrate native crops into our diets. Engage with our lighthearted banter and be part of this delightful exploration into the world of blueberries, huckleberries, and beyond. Whether you're a history buff, a blueberry enthusiast, or simply enjoy a good story, there's something for everyone in this episode.   For sources, transcripts, and to read more about this subject, visit: www.agroecologies.org To support this podcast, join our patreon for early, commercial-free episode access at https://www.patreon.com/poorprolesalmanac For PPA Writing Content, visit: www.agroecologies.org For PPA Restoration Content, visit: www.restorationagroecology.com For PPA Merch, visit: www.poorproles.com For PPA Native Plants, visit: www.nativenurseries.org To hear Tomorrow, Today, our sister podcast, visit: www.tomorrowtodaypodcast.org/   Key Words: Blueberries, Huckleberries, Indigenous Cultures, Agriculture, Canning Industry, Ball Brothers Corporation, Court Case, Evolution, Harvesting, Civil War, Embalming, Maine, Great Depression, World War II, Dr. Frederick Coville, Elizabeth White, USDA, Genetic Diversity, Pawpaws, Black Walnuts, Climate Change, Whortleberries, Social Media, Twitter

Missouri has a tropical fruit of its very own: the pawpaw. Although this Midwest native is getting more popular, you're unlikely to find them in a grocery store yet. Plus: While corn and soybeans dominate the Midwestern landscape today, some farmers are integrating strips of native prairie back into their fields.

Even as the tropical-tasting fruit gains popularity through farmer's markets and festivals, the pawpaw faces big hurdles to reaching a mass market.

Pawpaws, Ohio's largest native fruit, are in season now. Their tropical taste makes for unique recipes — if you can get your hands on one.

This episode features clips from the Farm Progress Show with Patrick O'Malley and Randall Vos, both field specialists in horticulture with ISU Extension and Outreach Patrick O'Malley's segment: Eastern Iowa has experienced a wetter year than usual, leading to fungal diseases in vegetables and fruit crops. Apples that haven't been sprayed are showing more fruit rot, while sprayed ones are doing well. Chinese chestnuts are a notable commercial nut crop in Southeast Iowa, with a co-op in Columbus Junction. Pawpaws are a potential crop for areas south of Highway 30 in Iowa, with pick-your-own operations emerging. Randall Vos's segment on grapes: Most Midwest grapes are wine grapes, which require specific harvesting considerations. Table grape varieties recommended for Iowa include Somerset seedless and Jupiter (for southern Iowa). Wine grape harvest timing depends on three main factors: Brix (sugar content), pH, and titratable acidity (TA). This year's challenge is higher TA levels due to cooler ripening temperatures. Harvest window varies by grape variety and intended wine type (e.g., rosé, dry wine, fortified wine). Early-season varieties may have a harvest window as short as a week, while later varieties can have 2-3 weeks. Flavor and aroma compounds are difficult to quantify, often relying on human tasting for assessment. Winemakers can adjust sugar levels post-harvest to balance high acidity. Risks of leaving grapes on the vine longer include rain damage, berry drop, and bird predation.

On this week's podcast, Nation's Restaurant News and Restaurant Hospitality senior food & beverage editor Bret Thorn is joined by Lisa Jennings, executive editor of Restaurant Business, who subbed in for Pat Cobe. Lisa came fresh off of the launch of Rokusho in Los Angeles, which has an eight-seat omakase room upstairs that's an outpost of a Udatsu Sushi, a Michelin-starred restaurant based in Tokyo. It's headed up by chef Shingo Ogane, but it will also host visiting Japanese chefs for three-week stints. Downstairs is a more casual sushi restaurant run by Carlos Couts, recently of Sushi by Scratch. The venue is a collaboration between the Japanese parent company and Boulevard Hospitality Group, which operates many properties in L.A., including Yamashiro, Comedor and the TCL Chinese Theatre. Lisa particularly enjoyed an avocado half stuffed with salmon tartare and served with nori seaweed, allowing guests to make their own handrolls. Bret discussed the trends that Rokusho addresses, including experiential dining, making news with visiting chefs and providing luxury for guests who can afford to pay for it. He went to the opening of the second location of Reserve Cut, a kosher steakhouse. It has long had a location in Manhattan's Tribeca neighborhood, but the new one is in Midtown. It's a much grander space than its downtown sibling and is trying to show that kosher dining can appeal to a broader audience than just Jews who follow religious dietary practices. Apart from steak, Bret enjoyed the restaurant's sushi, short rib tacos, butternut squash bites and more. He also is continuing to explore his new neighborhood of Sheepshead Bay in Brooklyn, where he discovered fresh dates, which are crunchy and taste like less-concentrated versions of dried dates. Lisa had not had fresh dates, although California has a robust date industry, but she did recently try paw paws for the first time while she was visiting Philadelphia. She said they'd be great as ice cream. Bret marveled that fresh dates apparently weren't being used by Angeleno chefs, and recalled that chefs in Atlanta didn't used to cook with local green peanuts, but now they do. So perhaps there is a future for fresh dates in restaurants in California. Then the editors discussed TV food competition shows. They're not fans, but Bret did enjoy his interview with Alyssa Osinga, who is chef de cuisine of The Butcher's Cellar, which opened earlier this year in Waco, Texas. She was a contestant on Hell's Kitchen, where she met Alejandro Najar, who is executive chef of The Butcher's Cellar and Osinga's life partner. Bret shared clips with his interview with Osinga, who discussed the restaurant and the fact that she strives to find uncomfortable situations, because they help her to grow.

For the last couple of years, I have been going to Pawpaw Fest which my friend and neighbour Matt Soltys organizes. Matt Soltys, for those listeners who don't know yet, is The Urban Orchardist. He teaches me about fruit and nut trees and I help him try and sort out which insects are leaving their sign on the trees. But back to the point… Pawpaws. Asimina triloba. A fruit with a comeback story. Have you tried one yet? I bet most folks listening have. They are growing more and more, both literally on the land and metaphorically in all the surrounding hype. Is it worth the hype? Matt Soltys seems to think so. He is growing hundreds of them (I had to fact check this statement, and yes, it is true). We sat down to discuss Pawpaws, a bit about their ecology and about the assisted migration that likely allowed the Pawpaw to arrive in Southern Ontario. I really don't know much about the species but want to get as much info as I can as they are likely going to be seen on the landscape more frequently as people get excited about this peculiar fruit. Why the big leaves? How did they get here? What happens at Pawpaw Fest? Where is it? How do I get there? (Sunday October 6th, Simpler Thyme Organic Farm, 1749 Hwy 6, between Guelph and Hamilton.)

Correction : Matt mentioned Malus floribunda as the name of the apple native to the southern Great Lakes area, but he afterwards he realized he made a mistake, and the species is Malus coronaria.

Today's episode is a new interview with Michael Judd, recorded by Mary Marshall and Andrew Tuttle, of Edge Perma. During this conversation, Michael shares a quick sketch of his background for listeners who aren't familiar with him and his work, including time at the Bullock's Permaculture Homestead Brother's Farm on Orcas Island in Washington State. Michael then leads us through how he came to his permaculture career and how suggestions on how he makes it work for him and his family, from his early days as an edible landscaper and designer to his current role as a nurseryman, educator, and an event planner focusing on regenerative systems and education. Throughout, he shares stories and personal anecdotes as only he can. Ten years ago, in 2014, I traveled from my home in Pennsylvania and journeyed down to Michael's family home and homestead to record my first in-person interview, ever, with him, meeting his wife, and his son Wyatt, who was still a babe in arms at the time. Since then, we've recorded multiple interviews together, he was a keynote speaker at the Mid-Atlantic Permaculture Convergence, and I've attended his Paw Paw festival. Throughout this decade knowing Michael, personally and professionally, what I've always loved is his ability to take what he knows, examine where his life is at the moment, decides where he wants to go, and pivots in that direction. However he changes his life he does that with intent, while remaining rooted in his mindset as a permaculture practitioner and the lessons he learned during his time in Nicaragua with Project Bona Fide. If you're working on the next steps of your journey, I highly recommend listening to Michael's earlier conversations with me and hear more about his journey. You'll find numerous useful insights that connect to the ones he shared today, that you can apply to your journey, wherever you want to go.

Embark with us as my friend, permaculture savant Michael Judd, guides us through the enchanting transformation of a sprawling 145-acre property into a bastion of sustainability. Our discussion blossoms with insights on how nut trees are not merely an environmental boon but a conduit for financial prosperity. Michael, with his inexhaustible knowledge, illustrates how permaculture and edible landscaping intertwine to foster a living space that is as economically viable as it is green. His stories, steeped in the profound wisdom of indigenous communities, serve as a testament to the intimate relationship between our own vitality and the well-being of our planet.As we traverse the symbiotic paths of eco-friendly living and personal wealth, the episode branches out into practical wisdom and the unexpected parallels with wealth management. I share my own revelation in planting over 500 nut trees, a journey that began with a passion for wildlife and morphed into an exploration of untapped economic potential. The conversation takes root in the rich soil of practical permaculture applications, like the creation of a Hugelkultur bed, while highlighting the importance of aligning investments with individual strengths and how an abundance mindset can cultivate both personal and ecological growth.Closing the loop, Scott offers a crucial perspective, framing our discussion with a reminder that tailored advice is vital when navigating the financial landscape. This episode, while steeped in the lush foliage of permaculture, is firmly grounded in the understanding that every investment, including those in nut trees, carries inherent risks alongside their rewards. So, whether you have your hands in the earth or your eyes on your portfolio, join us for an episode that promises to seed your mind with ideas for a more sustainable and prosperous future.Learn more about our guest, Michael JuddMichael Judd has worked with agro-ecological and whole-system designs throughout the Americas for over two decades, focusing on applying permaculture and ecological design.

The tasty fruits that we delve into today may not be familiar to you, especially if you live west of the Rocky Mountains. However, elsewhere in the country,  pawpaws and native persimmons are a taste treat. Master Gardener and international gardening expert Quentyn Young tells us about growing and pruning pawpaws and native persimmons throughout the United States.From Dave Wilson Nursery, Phil Pursel says the best fruit, vine and berry deals are coming soon to a nursery near you. In the west, they are probably already there. We're talking bare root fruit trees, vines, berries and more, available now as rather barren looking sticks that might be in small pots, ready for planting. (Originally aired in Ep. 67)And our favorite retired college horticultural professor, Debbie Flower, has a warning: Think before you apply a "frost protectant" spray. She offers some alternatives.

Paw Paws, urban orchards, and general tree care all get air time in today's show as we host guests from West Virginia State University Extension, Liz Moss and Eden Clymyer-Stern. What can we say, when you have three tree nerds in one room who knows what crazyness might ensue. Join us for this funfilled roller coaster, who knows what will happen.

On this West Virginia Morning, for the past several years, on a warm autumn afternoon at the end of September, the parking lot of West Virginia University's Coliseum fills with visitors. But they don't come to watch basketball. As Chris Schulz reports, they come out for the paw paw fruit. The post Paw Paws And Banned Books Week On This West Virginia Morning appeared first on West Virginia Public Broadcasting.

Do you want to help build the pawpaw industry by growing trees or fruit? Tune in as we discuss propagation, planting, and transplanting pawpaws. They may be hardy, but they're fickle to get started. They need rich, well drained soils but don't mind some acidity. The tap root is the key.

Keifer Engles returns to help preview the weekend in college football, a Saturday that includes Tennessee invading The Swamp and a date with. the Florida Gators. Pawpaws will be celebrated in Virginia this weekend, while the Kentucky city of Bardstown will fete bourbon. Also, "14 Foods Every Southerner Should Have In The Pantry."

It's pawpaw season! So today we have a very timely episode for you all, an interview with Neal Peterson of Peterson Pawpaws. Neal has spent decades working with Asimina triloba, collecting fruits from orchards across the Eastern United States and improving the largest tree ripened fruit of North America into the seven named cultivars that we know so well today. Allegheny, Potomac, Rappahannock, Susquehanna, Shenandoah, Tallahatchie, Wabash...you may have heard of these cultivars, but do you know how they came to be? In this episode we take a deep dive into Neal's breeding work and learn about the selection process that lead to these improved fruits release into the nursery industry.

The term food forest, from the permaculture world, sounds big—like if I suggested you start one, you'd probably say, “I don't have room for a forest of any kind.” But today's guest bets that most of us who garden have room for at least a little bit of fruity deliciousness in the form of a tree or two underplanted with some carefully chosen companions. Like maybe where a portion of the front lawn is right now—and maybe emphasizing native fruiting species. Maryland-based Michael Judd is a longtime champion of edible landscaping, the author of various books including, “For the Love of Pawpaws,” and hosts an annual pawpaw festival each September. And lately he's even the creator of a new app called Fruit Patch to help you get started on your own little food forest.

Traci Pécot, owner of Paws and Paw Paws, and Paws MidCity, joins Discover Lafayette to share her love for all things related to dogs. Paws and Paw Paws is a dog daycare that opened in 2017 with a mission to combine Traci's passion for dogs with her love for members of our senior community. Traci brings her work history in healthcare with assisted living, home care, Alzheimer's and dementia patients to her role in providing top-notch boarding and grooming facilities here in Lafayette. There are two locations of Paws and Paw Paws: 930 Robley Drive and 111 South College Road, in Lafayette. They offer boarding, daycare and grooming services. Paws and Paw Paws is a place where staff remain for the long haul and are treated with respect. Traci still works each day alongside her staff, taking a shift just as everyone else does. She is also responsible for all social media and web inquiries...and not only for Paws and Paw Paws, but also those of her husband, Ryan's, businesses, Adopted Dog Brewing and Tchoup's MidCity Smoke House. Paws and Paw Paws' cuddle buddy program offers seniors and the retired community the opportunity to spend time with dogs during the week in a rich, stimulating environment. Seniors sign up to lend their time and love to the precious dogs who need love as much as they do in their day-to-day lives. Traci and her husband, Ryan, own two rescues, Tchoupitoulas and Paws, who remind them daily why they love dogs! And their dogs have played a role in inspiring other businesses, including Adopted Dog Brewing and Tchoup's MidCity Smoke House. Traci works to ensure that each dog cared for by Paws and Paw Paws is given the proper stimulation and exposure to other dogs that fits its temperament.

Karlin Gill grew up among her family's outfitting business... in Karlin's words, "Food is our love language."

Foraging + 2022 Growing Season in Review"The days grow shorter and the nights are getting long. Seems like we're running out of time." - Triumph.In tough times and supply chain breakdowns, these foraging ideas can make the difference to augment your diet, generate some side hustle income, or help grow your homestead.Foraging stories:Chestnuts: The local rural elementary school has two chestnut trees. In 2021, I foraged 3/4 of a 5 gallon bucket from those trees and had enough to put up several buckets of chestnuts in sand to sprout out for Spring, plus enough to share with several friends.Shagbark hickoryPears from a scraggly set of trees in a county park.Pawpaws - grow along many creeks in woody parts of Eastern and NE Kansas. They may not be as good as the Eastern US cultivars, but they still taste like a cross between vanilla and banana pudding.So much neglected fruit of the forest = so much opportunity for a forager, homesteader, or even a side hustle.Extend your homestead with cuttings from elderberry and mulberry.Plant apples from seed.

Pawpaws are one of a handful of unique fruits and vegetables native to the United States, and yet they are not nearly as widely enjoyed as the holiday must have cranberries!  One of the reasons they aren't as well known is the primary way to get pawpaws is foraging for them. Jeff Hake sits down with us to talk about pawpaws and other fruits being grown at Funk's Grove Heritage Fruits and Grains and some of the products they are making too. Katie and Jonathan Funk grew up on the family farm & playing in Funk's Grove. Now, they are working with Katie's husband Jeff to try different practices and crops. They are creating unique food products using heritage grains and crops they grow as well as foods foraged from the grove. They have planted a combination of grains and offer some baking and bread mixes. And with the fruit trees they have planted they offer fruit leathers and other yummies. All of it is available just off the historic Route 66 in Illinois or online.  See photos, video & more at https://groundedbythefarm.com/foraging-pawpaws/  Video of our farm visit https://youtu.be/-pf5xtPADHw  Jeff shows how to make fruit leather https://youtu.be/5mCqo0gYtzc 

You either know the pawpaw or you respond with "I'm sorry, what did you just say?" The hard-to-find native Ohio fruit isn't common at all, and that's kind of sad! Pawpaws ripen quickly once picked (or once they fall hard to the ground) and have a very short shelf life making it impossible to get them to a typical grocery store. My guest Chris Chmiel knows more about them than just about anyone! Pawpaws have found their way into some small patches across northeast Ohio and even in some backyards. Mostly they grow in cooler climates, so the Midwest and Middle-eastern states are typically where these trees thrive. The fruit was important to indigenous Native American communities as well and they can be found near Ohio's Indian mounds. If you are lucky, you know where to find a pawpaw patch. You can grow them, but they take a while to establish and bear fruit. Pawpaws are delicious...that is if you can get your hands on them. But the Ohio Pawpaw Festival is a place where you can do that. Chris grows pawpaws, and processes the custard-like pulp so that people can purchase it to make products from beer to jam to ice cream. He also started the festival, so he really likes pawpaws! This podcast is supported by Chef Douglas Katz and the Katz group of restaurants and in partnership with Ohio Wines. *Here's another great piece on Ohio's pawpaws. If you want to see a video of me cutting into and eating a pawpaw, visit my CLE Foodcast Instagram story highlights.

Learn how to garden like nature from writer, horticultural consultant, and educator Dr. Lee Reich. We start with an audio tour of Lee's award winning “farmden," which is more than a garden and less than a farm. Packed with plants, including Paw Paws, Hardy Kiwi, Gooseberries, Figs, and Filberts, Lee uses his land as a test site for showcasing his gardening techniques. After 40 years of tending the land, Lee not only grows healthy fruits and vegetables, but also lots of fertile soil and compost.  Lee and I discuss the art and science of building soil from the ground up following his easy low impact approach. Lee explains why he believes it's important to pay attention to the top few inches of soil and let nature take care of the rest. Lee advocates gardening like nature by using a system that's good for plants and people and that emulates natural conditions.  We chat about mulch, the importance of compost, and why Lee loves to repurpose what others might call waste in his quest to improve soil fertility and grow vibrant and resilient plants. Dr. Lee Reich is a writer, horticultural consultant and educator with graduate degrees in soil science and horticulture. Lee's farmden has won awards from National Gardening and Organic Gardening magazines and has been featured in many publications like the New York Times and Martha Stewart Living. HIs books include Weedless Gardening, Uncommon Fruits for Every Garden, and Growing Figs in Cold Climates. Lee was a former plant and soil researcher for the US Department of Agriculture and Cornell University and wrote a syndicated gardening column for the Associated Press for nearly 30 years.
