Time to pick the Walnuts

It' that time of year again when Walnuts are plentiful and we stock up for the forthcoming season. Fresh walnuts are a delicacy in their own right, however, they conserve really well. Joanne will prepare 5 or 6 kgs so she has them to hand in the country kitchen, Chris will box up the rest so that they will be safe through the cold Winter months. We love collecting the walnuts, especially in this years glorious October sunshine, they are smaller this year yet in abundance. First find a walnut tree, look underneath and collect the ones that have dropped their cases, pass them through quality control, that would be Jess & Bonny, take the basket home and enjoy your free lunch, foraging at its best don't you think?
