Where can I find a list of fruit trees that grow in the Amazon?

I'm currently eating a mostly raw vegan diet, and I'm trying to transition to fruitarian diet. But I live in Northern Europe, and the fruit options here are very limited. Obviously I'd be better living some place topical, and I've been seeing some posts from some sustainable communities in South America.

Specifically, there seems to be many permaculture projects in the Amazon that are able to grow their own fruits in fruit-heavy forest gardens. I've learned about a lot of new exotic fruits from some of their videos, but what I really want is a comprehensive list of all the fruits that one can grow in the Amazon.

Does anyone know where I can find a list of fruits that grow in the Amazon (native and non-native)?

So, I'm not sure if I should be posting here on in the Frugal community, but I'm hoping for some feedback.

We've been saving a ton of money by making our own bread, pizza dough, and pasta at home, along with cooking dried beans. But non-dairy milks are by far the biggest food expense for us, and I'm looking at the option of getting a non-dairy milk maker.

If you've used one, does it actually save money?

Is it a PITA to use or can you make large batches (2+ liters) at a time that will keep for a day or two?

Anything else I should know that I'm simply not aware of when purchasing/using one?

Ingredient-wise, they have the same, except the honey nut has extra crap in it... why is it always cheaper? We're talking a 30% difference per 100g!

Satirical animated skits examining veganism and carnism.

You can be one of the first thousand subscribers! I wouldn't be surprised to see this blow up some day. The recent work is very good and the trajectory it's on is very promising. I find channels like this inspirational to work on my own expressions.

The research shows that a big meat-eater's diet produces an average of 10.24 kg of planet-warming greenhouse gasses each day. A low meat-eater produces almost half that at 5.37 kg per day. And for vegan diets - it's halved again to 2.47 kg a day.

Video description:

6 Jul 2023
Here is a short video of our protest at Shoppers who is owned by Loblaws, to protest and demand a new date for them to only sell cage free eggs in their store. While their own PC brand is Cage Free, in 2016 they said their entire stores supply would be cage free by 2025. They have since gone back on there word, yet again, and now the hens will be confined for even longer, undetermined amount of time. We are holding Loblaws accountable and will be doing this again very soon.

Veganism doesn't come up very often in his work but when it does he is not shy about it. Otherwise, it's nice to have a comic I know isn't going to say something stupid and cruel.
