Most of the most useful fruit trees and berry shrubs in North America never made it into grocery stores—not because they weren’t valuable, but because they weren’t built for shipping, stacking, or long shelf life.

In this video, I walk you through 15 native fruits that were once everyday food for families, foragers, and communities across North America—and how many of them can still be grown right in a normal backyard, even if you’re a lazy gardener.

These fruits didn’t disappear because they were bad.
They disappeared because the modern food system moved on without them.

🌱 You’ll learn:

Why many native fruits vanished from stores (but not from the land)

Which fruits thrive in sun, shade, poor soil, and tough conditions

How to place native fruits using a simple three-zone yard system

Which plants work as groundcovers, hedges, vines, or small trees

How to grow real food without turning your yard into a second job

Some of these fruits were once treated as “problems”.
Others taste tropical, yet grow naturally in the Midwest.
And many are still growing quietly along fence lines, forest edges, and backyards—completely overlooked.

This isn’t about extremes.
It’s about practical, calm, family-scale food that fits real life.

⚠️ Important note:
If you forage, always be 100% sure of plant identification. Never eat an unknown berry just because it “looks right.”
