they will fall off when they are ready i always thought it was more at the end of oct.
like het said they split open and you have the brown nut inside.
i like them raw.......... unless you get a horrible 1.
its the peeling them that takes the time.
cold days on the park looking for chestnuts..memories!
staffy we do / did that stick in the tree and take cover!
