Sorrel


This is a fruit bud called sorrel. The local people use it for a delicious drink mixed with ginger. Very tasty with a little bite from the ginger. The farmers on the 5 acre farm have about 2 acres of sorrel almost ready for harvest. They have to take a large pit from the center of the bud and sell the petals on the market for about one dollar a pound.
