Before you pick

Visitors should bring leather gloves because chestnuts are enclosed in prickly husks; gloves are also sold on site.
Pick-your-own customers should freeze or cook the nuts promptly because the orchard is unsprayed.
Visitors should rinse nuts before eating them raw because wildlife can enter the unfenced orchard.
