We’ve yet to crack them open . . . the black walnuts.
I know from this video it is going to be a messy process. However, when the beloved Sunday school/Awana teachers mention anything, Mr. Smackdown instantly grabs hold of the idea.
We are homeschoolers. They want to learn, I shall teach.
I’d like to call a sub in for “opening” day, though.
I will be brave. I’m a little scared of what lurks inside these walnuts. Namely the black pigment . . . that can and will seek to dye my hands.
I will wear gloves. Perhaps three pairs thick.
I really thought the video would dissuade them. Nope. We ended up watching approximately five . . . and with each one they became even more enamored with the idea of harvesting our own walnuts.
They don’t even like walnuts.
I do.
Perhaps they will learn. There is something to be said about harvesting your own food.
Thanks, Pat and Al!
