Sedum I gather them every fall and put them in my neighbors driveway then I crack them~~I have access to 3 large black walnut trees in my yard and the neighbors. I have already cracked 2 gallon bags full of black walnuts. Yup my fingers stained as can be. Have done this every year since I was a pup. I have gone out and gathered pecans, hickory nuts. I gather enough for the squirrels too.  Peggy |
