Well, the results are in, and it's decisive. It's been a shit year for
sweet chestnuts. I'd called it wrong last year, so tried to give this
year the
benefit of the doubt, but no, the nuts this year really have been poor.
Of course, that may not be universal, but about our roams it was a case
of lots of early droppers little more than sacks, followed by a weak
crop of below average size nuts, and few and far between. Could just be a bad
year? Maybe. It has been poor across the board, I can’t think of a wild
food that's had a particularly good year, neither fruit, nut or fungi.
