Originally from the Andes, this tiny orange tomatillo cousin hides its sweet tangy fruit beneath a papery skirt. This fruit is such a treat to pop out of their husks and into your mouth! Picked too green, it’s acidic like a tomatillo, one must shake the plant and let only the ripest of fruit fall to the ground before collecting. Ground cherries are a very diverse group, ranging from around 70 species that all differ in flavor, color, size, and growth habit, including the Cape Gooseberry.
