Love it. They look like three gnarled, surly old men. Do these beeches produce nuts? My family bought a piece of land in Nova Scotia that has some beech trees near it and I'm wondering if they will be useful as a food source.
Uhm, it is a comment on "weird beeches" At least I can see it below the picture^^ Yes, this beeches produces nuts, in the late middle age this hill was used as a grazing land for pigs, the savages cut the trees at a certain height so they grew more branches than usual, thats why these beeches look unusual weird
To your second comment: Well, it's definitly a different happiness, a more fulfilling, I'd say. Great to hear of ... companions!
Yeah, the first nations would collect the oil, I think by mashing the nuts and then simmering them in water. The oil would collect on top and could be skimmed off. It's supposed to be absolutely delicious.
