I gathered 29 pounds of walnuts the last two weeks of September. The pace picked up in October. The temperatures dropped and a big wind blew through this week. There were lots of walnuts waiting for me. Some on the ground, but lots ready for picking. Reaching up is better than stooping over.
Taking the hulls off
meant stained fingers, my usual October condition.
In 24 hours, I gathered 93 pounds! And slept quite well each night. Each grocery bag is about 15 pounds.
Total so far = 228 pounds. Last year’s final total was 204 pounds.
