ginkgo
🗓 Season: October · November
🔍 When is it ripe?
Female trees only: fleshy, apricot-like fruit falls when ripe, emitting a very unpleasant rancid-butter smell. Wear gloves — the outer flesh causes dermatitis. The inner nut is edible; roast or boil after removing shells. Limit intake (toxins at high dose).
Ginkgo tree with branches that overhang sidewalk next to the apartment building adjacent to Blue Dog bakery. Berries are ready to harvest usually mid-September, but are quickly gathered by those in the know.
