I put my nut tree question in fruit, didn't seem like a vegetable or herb ... should there be a 'Nuts' category or could Fruit become 'Fruit and Nuts'?

yep not a bad idea.

Don't have a "nuts" category, it could be misinterpreted.

I discovered yesterday there's a hazelnut tree in the park at the end of our road where I forage for blackberries and elderflowers/berries. How did I manage to miss that for 4 years then? When are hazelnuts ripe? And do you reckon I'll beat the squirrels to them?

I read hazelnuts are ripe when they fall off the trees. But that was in an Aussie book & we dont have squirrels!!!!
