Im from the Midwest but moved in my twenties. Rediscovering the Midwest when I travel home to visit has been great.

Last time I was there I ate my first mayapple. They just grow there and are a tasty fruit you cant buy in the store. Most locals haven't even ate one because of it isnt in the grocery store it might as well not exist for most people.

Next up is a pawpaw. I can't wait. I've already been watching tree identification guides.
