Chestnut
📍 901 Columbia Rd, Madison, WI 53705, USA
🗓 Season: September · October
🔍 When is it ripe?
Spiny green burs split open to reveal 2–3 shiny brown chestnuts. Gather from the ground after they fall. Must be cooked (roasted, boiled, or ground into flour) — toxic raw in large quantities. Peel the papery inner skin after cooking.
Two chestnut trees in the park between the bike path and railroad tracks, right by the intersection of Purdue and Colombia. A bit late for them now (10/22/2022), but lots of husks scattered on the ground!
