Chestnuts are a food belonging to the kind of nut that is very popular to eat. It has a delicious, sweet taste and is beneficial to health as well. The tree has dead brown bark. The tree is a sparse shrub with long, arranged leaves. Its fruits are single fruits gathered together in bunches at the ends of the branches. Has a hard shell There are thorns surrounding the shell. Young fruits are green and completely closed. The old fruit will have a brown color and the shell will separate, exposing about 1-3 seeds inside. The fruit will fall from the tree when the time is right.
- Chestnuts are harvested between September and October, and the time I went to look for chestnuts was in early October. And this was my first time seeing a real chestnut tree.
- Get ready The weather at that time was quite hot, so I had a bag to carry. I use a pair of tongs because the chestnuts are sharp.We went to Castellania, Italy. When we got there, we parked the car and walked into the forest. It wasn't too deep and I could see chestnut trees and the fruit that hadn't fallen yet. I walked a bit further and found chestnuts lying on the ground. Pick it up and take a look. It turned out that some of the seeds inside were still soft and green. Which means still can't eat.
- But we didn't stop trying. Because I like the atmosphere in the forest. In addition to seeing chestnuts, there are also naturally beautiful flowers and mushrooms. We continued walking and saw more chestnuts. Some are ready to eat, but there aren't many. In conclusion, what was obtained that day was not much and the results were small. But it's okay, it was my first time, it was fun and I really liked it.
