Publisher's Summary

It is hard to eat more than one pawpaw at a go. The creamy rich pulp with tropical flavors ranging from mango and pineapple to banana combine like a satisfying dessert. 

The pawpaw, a close relative of the tropical custard apple, grows throughout much of North America yet culturally and horticulturally we know very little about it. 

This mini manual by edible landscape author Michael Judd jumps right into growing, caring for, harvesting, and using pawpaws—from seed to table. Judd demystifies fruit growing in direct easy-to-follow steps that quickly brings confidence to the newbie grower while expanding the horizons of curious gardeners. 

Historically, most people have only experienced foraged pawpaw fruit, which can be a hit-or-miss game for a good experience. That is quickly changing, as selected and bred cultivars are being grown and shared. Judd's pawpaw manual gets you started right away with the best selections and approaches. 

Filled with straight forward how-to advice, For the Love of Pawpaws brings to life easy and successful ways to enjoy the best pawpaws have to offer. 

Chapters include:  

  • Where to grow pawpaws
  • Buying a good pawpaw tree 
  • Growing pawpaws from seed and grafting 
  • Landscaping ideas 
  • Ecological tree care 
  • Harvest: fruit handling and processing 
  • What to do with all this fruit—recipes 
  • Pawpaws and permaculture 

Discover the many reasons pawpaws are edible landscape and culinary all-stars! 

For the Love of Pawpaws will take you on an adventure that culminates in one of life’s most rewarding experiences. A delicious opportunity to enjoy organic gardening and gourmet food at its best.
