We have a plethora of chestnuts covering our yard! We had walnuts, too but those are a major pain in the behind to harvest and get any meat out of them (not to mention you could permanently maim yourself in the process). The Husband cannot stand walnuts due to a traumatic childhood experience with some Waldorf salad.....but, anyhoo.....
If anyone would like some chestnuts, despite them being on the slightly high maintenance end of food choices that are available, please let me know...there are still bunches on the ground, but thankfully The Husband cleared away most of the little prickly things that grow around the nut that makes you think and sometimes say naughty words when you touch one of them unexpectedly. They really hurt...even for about 20 minutes afterward! Those were the things #1 and I were stepping on during our baby squirrel experience.
Leave me a comment and I'll try to get you some...we're not big nut lovers at our house, although I am going to attempt chestnut stuffing and freeze it for Thanksgiving! Why couldn't it be an apple tree? Sigh.........

You can pass some our way. I grew up eating those pesty things.
