Whole, wild, local, organic walnutsクルミ, chestnutsクリ and buckeye nuts栃の実 are in season right now! they are 0 yen a pound :) Nobody seems to bother though, except for my dad and I, at least around here... What a strange world.
Pictures: buckeye nuts and walnuts (in the shell), my dad pealing buckeyes (he knows how to make them edible), halved walnuts. yummy :)
