No, those aren’t giant coffee beans. It’s come to my attention that there’s a demand for pawpaw seeds and people are paying outlandish prices for them. One person out in New Albany was selling nine seeds for $4.00, and that’s considered to be the lower end of the going rate now. Some people are charging more. I guess I’ve been out of the loop. I just gave away close to a dozen overripe pawpaws to a woman who wanted the seeds. Didn’t charge her anything.
Nine seeds for $4.00! That’s more than Glass Gem corn seed goes for! That figures out to almost 45-cents a seed!
Well, I can do better than that. I still have some ripe pawpaws intact. There is no “processing” to them at this point beyond just squishing them out and rinsing them off. I’ll even stick them in the fridge so the seeds can begin stratifying for the winter.
Pawpaw seeds for sale: 3 for a dollar
That’s three bucks for nine seeds. And I’m inside the 270 loop in northeast Columbus. Come get ’em. Heck, for this price you can buy them and resell them at a profit.
