Kidderminster, UK. 17th September, 2019. As we head into the autumn season, foragers of all kinds are at the ready to start collecting the edible fruit of the sweet chestnut tree (Castanea sativa). Whether it's woodland wildlife or indeed a human forager, delicious sweet chestnuts are available free of charge to all - a welcome helping hand from Mother Nature's own 'Forest Foodbank'.
