My rule of thumb, for when trees first bear fruit, is one or two fruits the first year, 10 or 20 the second year, then a bowl or two or three the following year. It's not a perfect rule, but interesting to think about.
I will keep these at room temperature for 2 to 4 days, then roast them. That information is via WashingtonChestnuts.com.
Can't wait to see how they taste Daniel!
ReplyDeleteHi Beverly. They were actually quite tasty. Ning found bags of chestnuts at Chuck's Produce in Vancouver. They were about $9 a pound. Mine were not $9 a pound tasty, but this was the first time around. If I live long enough, maybe we'll see the 4 trees produce 10 to 20 pounds a tree LOL. http://www.chestnuthilltreefarm.com/store/pg/36-Chestnut-Orcharding.aspx
