Our area has tons of wild black persimmon trees. The deer congregate under the trees when the fruit turns ripe. I may try to make some persimmon wine this year, since the mustang grapes crop is a bummer. Not many grapes on 30’ tall vines this year.
I haven’t seen any mustang grapes this year. Lots of vines but not grapes. IIRC, July 4th was the time to pick them. I’ve made mustang grape jelly but have be careful because they break my hands out and talk about burrrrrrrrn!
It will soon be time for pickly pear jelly, too.
