Foraging for food

[Jonny69]

We've had a bit of a bonus day with regards to free food. We normally scoop up sweet chestnuts locally and in the park but they were huge and fat this year and the squirrels were literally throwing them down for us! Then we decided to go scrumping on a piece of derelict land that's going to become a building site, because we'd seen loads of apple trees and blackberry brambles. We missed the blackberries unfortunately, but this was what we could stuff in our pockets:



The three apples on the left are sweet and juicy and the two on the right are sharper. No idea what variety but they aren't cooking apples. More chestnuts than we know what to do with and sprig of rosemary stolen from the park for our potato bake tonight. There were loads of mushrooms growing round the trees too, just a shame both of us hate mushrooms because they so looked delicious

Edit: there were more apples but they got eaten on the way home
