growninhaiti:Did you know that are more varieties of starfruit (Carambola) then just the one sold commercially? One the left is a neighbors harvest from one of the trees gifted from our nursery. I don’t think I even have this one in our food forest. So glad there are people not only caring for the trees given but also harvesting from them! Random fun fact since I’ve been working with metal lately… starfruit juice removes rust! Averrhoa carambola (starfruit) has been used to polish and clean metals for centuries due to the acidity of its fruit juice. It does a very good job at removing rust from the metal. The juice can also be used to remove rust stains from white cloth. ・・・ #growninhaiti #starfruit #Averrhoacarambola #sharingiscaring #diversity #varieties #haiti #ayiti #foodsecurity #agroforestry #foodforest #reforestation #growth #exoticfruits #tropicalfruits #fruitsofhaiti https://www.instagram.com/p/CY4Ds1quH1j/?utm_medium=tumblr -- source link
