Fall Foraging: Persimmons (Diospyros virginiana) 

These delicious fruits can be found on the edges of mixed hardwood forests or in the partial shade of thickets and hedgerows. When foraging, look for ripe persimmons that have fallen to the ground—they're at their sweetest. Avoid those still clinging tightly to twigs or showing signs of insect damage. 

🍊 Wondering what to do with your haul? Puree the flesh for fruit leather or add it to breads and baked goods. Persimmons are also great in jams, chutneys, or dehydrated for a tasty treat! 

Happy foraging! Read Powell Gardens’ Midwest Foraging seasonal guides on the blog (link in bio). 🌾
