Welp, only got one jar of sand hill plum jelly this year! Between the #PolarVortex and the early spring #HeatWave on rinse and repeat, only a few trees' blossoms made it. (At least they were my fav trees!) #plums #edibleforest #FruitTrees #nativeplants

The apricots this year are about half the size they usually are. Someone brought ripe apricots from Albuquerque which were the size of large grapes, mostly. Very dry here.

Can anyone ID this fruit? It's a #native #Amazon #rainforest #tree growing in the region of Badass Fruiterrarist Land in far western #Amazonia near Sumaco National Park. We're confident that it's a #Solanum species, but which one? The #fruit is like something between Solanum betaceum (tree tomato) and Solanum quitoense (lulo/naranjilla), and it grows on a narrow but fairly tall tree at the edge of the forest (next to the road).

(Also is it edible?)

Passiflora quadrangularis

Reduce our labour by not removing the #coffee tree...
Reuse the coffee tree as a trellis for #badea (giant #passionfruit vine)...
Recycle the biomass of the fallen coffee leaves...
That's how we do #permaculture and sustainability.

(And yes, that is a hand-crafted #bamboo table that the volunteers made.) #diy

Bonus: Capsicum chinense 'Sweet Datil' has all of the flavour without the burn. These aren't ripe yet; they should be deep red.
