A Wild Fall Harvest
Wild Grapes and Staghorn Sumac
As you can see in the picture, wild grapes are quite a bit smaller than their cultivated counterparts. The taste is a bit more bitter also, and of course they have seeds. They can be used like you would use any other grape.
I use staghorn sumac to make a juice concentrate. It has a citrus like taste. You can see some ways I've used it at The Original Pink Lemonade.
A not quite Wordless Wednesday from my SD card to your computer.

I always pick a few "horns" of sumac for fall decoration, but I never knew you could drink it until I read your pink lemonade post!
Ah, Meredith once again you are making things pretty while I'm am stuck in the practical! :)
I had no idea you could juice staghorn sumac, that stuff is a weed around here! Happy to know I can harvest it:)
That's cool! Never knew that either!
