What’s a Pawpaw?
Often called “Appalachia’s best-kept secret,” the pawpaw has thin green skin, large brown seeds, and a custard-like golden flesh with tropical notes of mango, banana, vanilla, and pineapple. Beyond being delicious, pawpaws are vital for pollinators—the leaves are the only food source for zebra swallowtail butterflies.
