The paradox is that less is more. A paradox is a seemingly absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition that when investigated or explained may prove to be well founded or true. This really does sum up the statement less is more as it pertains to homestead life and the production of food. So join us for our last pepper harvest of 2022 as we discuss the paradox that less may be more on the homestead. Thanks so much for watching!

Black cherry is a wild North American species of cherry which produces, well, black cherries. These trees are common in much of eastern North America but many people don't know or don't get the opportunity to harvest black cherry fruit for themselves. Part of that may be where the species is most often found and the height at which the cherries are usually found, given that black cherry is a full-sized tree. But there are some things you can do when foraging for edible wild plants that may help you get a bit of a haul of these nutritious cherries.
