(Baonghean.vn) - In early October, the forests in Giai Xuan, Tan Hop, Dong Van... of Tan Ky are bustling with people collecting chestnuts.
 |
| October is chestnut season in Tan Ky forests. This is a gift that nature gives to people in mountainous areas, barren land, and difficult life. |
 |
| The work of gathering is not easy. People often get up early in the morning to collect and work until late in the afternoon, diligently and patiently in the dense forests. |
 |
| When ripe, chestnuts fall to the ground in a dark brown color, but some are still inside the thorny shell. |
 |
| To avoid mosquitoes, everyone must equip themselves with modest clothing. In addition, to limit being pricked by the thorny shell of the chestnuts, everyone wears thick gloves when picking chestnuts. |
 |
| Some chestnuts are hanging from the branches. |
 |
| To pick up more chestnuts, many people climb trees and shake their branches. |
 |
| A girl "shows off" her spoils. If you work hard, a person can collect 5 to 7 kg a day. |
 |
| Chestnuts are a popular nut. This year, due to the prolonged heat wave, chestnuts have produced fewer seeds, so the price of chestnuts is higher than usual (about 40,000 VND/kg), which is a significant source of income for the people here. |
 |
| On rainy days or in our free time, a handful of chestnuts also makes us happy. To make the chestnuts soft and fragrant, just roast them over low heat, evenly until the chestnuts "smile" and reveal their white core. |
