All the crab-apple trees are also groaning (made six jars of apple sauce last weekend.) So much fruit, so little time... If you're near Basildon (Oxfordshire), the National Trust have a massive Walnut tree there in the grounds but on the footpath so no need to pay, along with Mulberries and tons of Sweet Chestnuts. Have been there the last two years and no-one else seems to bother foraging there. I've plenty of other locations besides so dive in if you're local :)

Someone mentioned a hawthorn jelly using crab apples for the pectin? Spotted a crab apple on the way home today so might give it a go. Would love to find a walnut, congrats on the find! Eyes peeled.
@mespilus unfortunately no pigs. But I do have some kids I could fatten up...
