It’s pawpaw season in Pittsburgh, and we’re sharing everything you need to know about this tropical-tasting fruit, its native habitat, and how to forage its flavors for yourself. Plus, friend-of-the-pod Sarah McAlee (aka Brothmonger) is sharing big news for October, the beloved ice cream shop Dave & Andy’s has found new life thanks to a “sweet tooth family,” and there’s more pizza and coffee shops to check out in Pittsburgh. We hope you came hungry!
