Thank you so much Joy 😀x
Beautiful music and most enjoyable video thank you Marie-Anne for sharing your enviable farm life .I never knew the journey of walnuts .🥰😘
You are very welcome Margie xx
Merci for taking us down the Walnut Lane.
You are welcome Ms B xx
I remember doing that when I was a kid. I also remember the black walnut cakes that were made from them . Yum!
Marie Anne !!Hermosos tus arboles de nueces !!! Son tan ricas! !Y Felicitaciones por tus ayudantes !!!Coco y Peanut !!!🐕🐕Felicidades por tus logros !!👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪💪❤
Gracias Mabel😘
I learnt so much from watching this video! I kept saying to my husband “ did you know that…..”. I adore watching your journey and adventures. Thank you from Melbourne Australia.
An apple walnut tart or cake in the oven on a cold winter's day sounds lovely.
👍
Thank you Madame for the fascinating history if walnuts...who knew!!
Amazon sells nut “collectors”. No need to bend down. They’re very reasonably priced, too! Love your farm videos ❤️
I will take a look Sherry merci x
Decades ago when In Greece I saw nets put under olive trees to catch the olives, so being a creative person I put nets under my Bramley apple trees and instead of falling on the ground and bruising the apples fell into the nets undamaged. You have to pick them out of the nets regularly, but much more efficient than picking off the ground. Why not try this with your walnuts?
Genius Flower 😃👍
What a great idea!
@@donnamurphy1871 It worked with my Bramleys - unbrused after falling into a net!
Yum Yum Walnuts from the garden, we eat every morning a few with our oats, oat groats or steelcut oats. Nice for a treat 1 walnut with a date my sweet treat😋 Coco and Peanut where so tired🐕
Sounds delicious Leonie xx
Oh, Marie-Anne, you are truly living a dream…harvesting walnuts in the your own backyard. My favorite nut (fruit). Will you share a recipe or two with the walnuts? Yum!
I certainly will Tobey xx
Love it! But poor Peanut! He worked so hard.
He did Denise 😃
I grew up in Pennsylvania where we called your kind of walnuts "English walnuts". We had native black walnuts which are tough-guy northern cousins of your walnuts. Black walnut hulls or husks don't break off but natually rot off on the ground over the winter. So what we did was gather them in the fall and spread them on the driveway and drive over them many times to get the hull off. The nuts were not affected by traffic so then we took them in and broke the shell with a hammer! A lot of work for little yield but my grandmother used the meat to make delicous caramel candies.
Same for me in Michigan only my grandma made cake with the black walnut meats.
Same here in New York...we have black walnut trees...much messy work,...I do feel inspired to gather some this fall, though... after watching Marie Anne's video!
I am glad we have the softer sort Catherine 😃
Loved your vlog. Thank you for putting a black background for your subtitles. Much easier to read. Other bloggers do it in fancy writing and it is over their scene of film and it disappears into the background. Would love to see more on your farmhouse.
We upgraded to Final Cut Pro Elizabeth and this is the default text 😃👍 Carl is getting used to it 😉
Bonjour Marie-Anne! Walnuts, how wonderful and delicious. I enjoyed the whole video including seeing your puppies, looks like you worked Peanuts too hard, he had to take a nap, how cute. I enjoyed the glimpses of yours and Carl's hard work inside and outside, beautiful! You are an amazing woman. Have a blessed week. I always look forward to seeing you.
Merci Chirp Chirp 🤗
Much love to the pups
You make VERY RELAXING VIDEOS..THANK YOU .MERCI 🕊🇺🇲💕
That is good to know Cheryl 🤗
A lock keeper on the Loire Canal gave us a bucket of walnuts. A delicous treat is spreading a walnut half with a paste of finely grated Parmesano-Reggiano and butter.
How kind 😃
Harvesting is soul-satisfying. I enjoyed sharing this with you.
It is Judy 🙏
I would pick black walnuts while on walks and it was quite messy but so much fun. Then years ago while living in El Paso Texas along the Rio Grande we had
pecan trees and so tall needing machinery to shake them off the trees. 🎉
Live each moment to its fullest, yes?
Wise words Ursula xx
Hello Marie-Anne! What a wonderful live! Merci!! Au revoir...
🙏
They make great Christmas gifts, add a nut cracker!
😃👍
How many likes can I give this video?! So fun to watch you harvest these walnuts. Walnuts are so nutritious - thanks for the facts about them. When I was a kid in northern Illinois (many years ago), my parents and I used to drive out to an old country road and harvest walnuts that had dropped from all the trees along the road. Thanks for jogging this memory.
I am glad it brought back happy memories Kay 🤗
Love the walnuts you’ve collected.. love Coco and Peanut foraging also.. they are so cute… you are a lovely warm happy woman.. mahalo, from Hawaii … walnut collecting seems much more joyful than Macadamia collecting
Here with mosquitos for days..
It is such a joyful experience to gather and store and then to use 🙏
My favorite nuts. Luv adding a little to my noodles when crushed 😍
So this is how you stay in shape!!
💯👍
So cute that a Peanut helped with your walnut harvest! 😉
It tired him out Dede 😃 he helped with the apple harvest to - that is up tonight x
Looking forward to your Apple harvest video! I love the way you film them, I almost feel like I am there.
Marie Anne I love your fashion channel but I absolutely adore this channel!!
Merci Melissa 😘
Here in Louisiana we anxiously await the pecan harvest. Another month or so and there will be plenty to enjoy.
😃👍
I just love everything you video and share with us. Your genuine kind nature really shows through and I’m reminded of how wonderful it is to learn about so many things in this life outside our own daily experiences. Merci très beaucoup! 🇨🇦
This is such a wonderful world Elfriede 🙏
You can easily dye wool and cotton in a beautiful golden yellow with the husks of the walnuts.
France has such helpful animals, truffle hunting pigs and walnut sniffing dogs. 😅
I was very happy to see that you allow your dandelions to live. There are a group of villages near us, called the Amana Colonies, settled by a group of German immigrants (it’s a fascinating story) they make wine from dandelion flowers. Though sadly most American dislike dandelions.
The walnuts look delicious!
I will look out that recipe Mrs C - we have loads of dandelions!
Love, love this video. Your little dogs were a sweet addition! ❤️
Yes, I enjoyed this video, thanks! great to see the walnut harvest
Walnuts! We have pecan trees here in central Texas but no walnuts...I love to harvest. Lucky you!
We can organise a swap Amy 😃
Oh what a joy - especially your laugh at the end. 🐕
😘
The taste must be fantastic.
I will tell you in a few weeks Suzanne 😃 they are very soft right now and very mild
Interesting information about the nuts.
What a harvest your getting. In the states, we were always told large harvests of fruits and nuts equated to a long winter. Hopefully not and😊today you are looking like a true farm girl!
I hope not too Bobbie 😘
So enjoyed your harvest video. It's nice to see parts of your life and what you like to do. Beautiful home/farm.
This is fast becoming my favorite channel!
Merci beaucoup Susan I am glad you are enjoying it 😘
Lovely video! The husks of the walnuts can be used as a dye. No fixative needed!
Carl was thinking of staining our new floorboards with it 😳 but he would have to boil them in one of my pans 🤔... not going to happen 😂
Manoir les Parts is looking very beautiful these days. Lovely grounds. Nice walnut harvest too. I cracked a tooth filling eating walnuts earlier this year so I began making my own walnut butter instead to prevent further damage.
Oh Dear - you do have to be careful the shells are tough 🙏
Miss Marie-Anne that's so much fun darling to picked up fresh walnuts especially peanut and cocoa help you too is adorable good work my Beautiful Teacher l love you kiss muah ❤❤
Merci Hector
You're welcome my Sweet Queen
I can’t wait to see your house decorated for Christmas, in the French chic way 🤗
We hope the renovations will be done by then Ingeborg 😄🎄
What a nice harvest! And your helpers are precious. I can understand why that is a favorite lunch spot. Thank you for sharing with us.
🤗
I love walnuts and it was a pleasure to watch you harvesting them. Kindest regards from the Netherlands..again.😊
Merci Monique 😘
Peanut has it so hard. Lol! Great facts!
😃
What an adventure you both are on .
Thank you for including me. Love the music also 🕊🇺🇲💕
🤗
Wow that is quite the haul of walnuts..They are so big as well perfect timing for winter baking and snacks. I am just two weeks away from my next fall trip to France..I will keep an eye out for the walnut trees..
I hope you have a lovely time Darcie xx
VERY interesting❣️
Nice video! I love your sweet puppies! Coco and my Cricket look a lot alike. Peanut is precious too.
🙏❤️
Thank you for sharing! Such a nice experience!
I remember helping my mother collect walnuts from the trees in the grove next to our Iowa farmhouse. Grandpa would shell them over the winter months in his basement and provide us all with quart jars of nutmeats ready to use in baking. Sweet memories.
🙏
I love the video and I learned a few things about walnuts and harvesting them. Your home is so warm and inviting.❤
Merci Vickie xx
Wow, you got fresh walnuts for your kitchen, that is so nice. One of my favorite way of having walnuts is to toast walnuts for 2-3 minutes in the oven and then add a few drizzles of honey, to coat walnuts with honey and to snack them.
😋
SO much fun to watch your Walnut Harvest! Was eating a fresh fruit salad, with walnuts & chia seeds! Cocoa and Peanut were adorable 🥰 Watching you in the rain 🌧 made me smile! You are an inspiration for all of us! ❤
🤗
Good harvest! I just bought several pounds of shelled walnuts. Have you ever had a walnut pie? Delicious!
I will look up the recipe Tanya xx
Walnuts are so good and you have a lovely bounty. Hugs
They are taking an age to dry Donna - we can't wait to try them
Géniale la vidéo Marie Anne . Elles sont magnifiques vos noix et bien saines !
Une bonne première récolte pour des gâteaux et du vin de noix !
Une Grenobloise , en Argentine 🇦🇷 ( plein de noyers ici aussi )
Such a wonderful self sustaining life style you and Carl live. Peanut and Coco benefit so well living in the country as they do. Mmmm...walnuts and fresh apples! Delicious. I imagine that walnuts are also good brain food since their "meat" is brain shaped. Thank you, Marie-Anne for sharing ur time with us. 🤠❣
🤯😃
I immensely enjoyed watching your video. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for the top of paper in the tray! I didn't know this. Collecting walnuts over the last couple weeks (along with much of our village here in France!). Glad we have 2 walnuts trees on our property as well as along the walking path at the bottom of our property as those on the path are now denuded (almost) of walnuts. Such a wonderful year for walnuts! Ps. I love cooking with walnuts. My favourite go to recipe is: sauté thinly sliced onion. Add broccoli florets. Add walnut pieces. A pinch of sea salt. Sauté together until the broccoli is done how you like it.
I will give that a try - I love your pet ducks 🤗 you have a lovely channel
The loft is such a wonderful space!
It is gorgeous we have two and this is the larger 😃
I have a couple of black walnut trees that I harvest from. Black walnuts are a little more labor intensive.
They sound tougher Linda - bon courage 😃
Congratulations You guys! And I love the outtakes so funny Love you Bye
Merci Natalia x
I loved seeing your harvest. It reminded me of my grandpa harvesting from his huge walnut tree. He used newspaper in boxes too. I love walnuts in banana bread.
I am sure I will be doing the same or similar Kathleen 😃 g;ad to have brought back happy memories xx
We were lucky enough to have a large walnut tree at the back of our property and they were so tasty. We used to put them in the legs of stockings and suspend them on a hook to dry . Thank you for bringing back happy memories.
What a lovely video to watch. It's so fun and authenci, not like many of the so-called "simple life" or "off-grid life" or "country life" channels that are staged to looking pretty like a magazine but you never really see them dirt, grit and sweat that goes into living and maintaining a place like this. This is really enjoyable and real, and a city girl like me really appreciate it.
🙏
Yay! Rah! Really enjoyed this one. Wish I could enjoy some of your freshly picked walnuts! I ALWAYS keep them on hand. Worked at the Library yesterday to set-up for their book sale. Felt a little like Peanut when I got home. Enjoy a nice hot bath, and rest after that hard, fruitful labor.❤
Glad you enjoyed it Gwendolynne 😃
Such a fun video to watch I enjoyed watching this x
😘
I've come across another tool that might be helpful Marie-Anne. It's called the Darlac Grab and Lift and Amazon sell it. I'm always looking for easier ways to pick up fallen leaves without mowing
I'll check it out Fairc - it could be a good present for Carl 😉
Love this video.
❤️
Gathering your walnuts was relaxing to watch. A lot of bending for you tho!
I remember picking up walnuts as a child with my brothers. Some how it always turned into a “walnut” fight. The best ones were still in their casing and black so it would splatter on impact! Such good memories.
😃❤️
Love seeing what's happening at Manoir les Parts. What a splendid harvest!
😘
Marie Anne … what a wonderful experience to share with us. Your special place makes me happy to see your dream come true. Your home, the stables, outbuildings and grounds with their bounty feel magical to me.. 💕💕. As always..thanks for taking us along with you.
You are very welcome xx
The happiness you are experiencing is contagious! I love watching you on your lovely farm!
My great-grandmother had walnut trees and every year my grandfather would come home with bags of them. He would shell them and bring us bags of unshelled walnuts for our baking. In return, we would give him some of baked items, usually banana nut bread (his favorite). Both are no longer with us, but the memory remains. Seeing all your walnuts reminded me of them. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing your lovely memories Kat 🙏
these are idyllic scenes, Marie Anne!
🙏
Delightful fall activity! Interesting subtitles. Thank you for sharing this experience with me today. Didn't know walnuts could grow so large. Truly longing for your lifestyle and will "participate" by making walnut milk today. Also been wondering if you have been affected by any of France's wildfires? They can be devastating here on the west coast, USA.
We are lucky enough to be well away from any of the fires SL x
What a fabulous harvest. Loved seeing the gentle autumn sunshine (for most of the time anyway 😂).The walnut facts were very interesting too. Are you going to use them all or sell some at local markets?
We will use them Sabrina and make gifts of them to people we know xx
Is Peanut helping in finding walnuts? They are so good!
He is Manon 😃 or was until he fell asleep ❤️
@@frenchfoodfrenchhome4219 I saw that. A nap for a job well done. 😉
These videos are so lovely for those of us who live in the city❤️
I am glad you enjoy them Marti 😘
Sweet lady!
Wow! Living the dream. So exciting to see you and the fury fellows
harvesting. Just recently heard about the hand staining. Good you had the gloves❤️🇨🇦❤️ Enjoy.
How lovely to spend some time with you and the walnuts! Thanks for the walnut milk recipe. I'd never have thought to try that - sounds wonderful!
Oh, what a wonderful walnut harvest, Marie-Anne. Will you make a tart with them?…and there so many other ideas for them, as well! That’s going to be great fun. I like the way the walnuts plopped out of the tree with a flourish at the end! There is always something interesting going on at Manoir Les Parts!
I will be trying many different recipes with them Jazzie 😃
This was such an interesting video. I never knew how a walnut grew. I did not know that it grew within something.. I thought the shell of the walnut was the outside. I learned something new today. Thank you for taking us along on the harvest. 🙂
🤗
Lovely video😊!
Every morning I walk my dog through the vineyards here where I live in Austria 🇦🇹. There are many walnut trees as they were planted to provide workers for shade and are also supposed to keep mosquitoes away. We have been collecting nuts as we go for weeks now and curing them. Very much looking forward this year to experimenting with walnut flour and sage (my garden is bursting) and walnut pesto!
Have you tried picking some in June when they are green (gloves essential) and using them to make walnut liqueur?
I can highly recommend it 😋 ❤
I will try to do that next year Simone 😃 I have to say the smell from the unripened walnut husks is amazing ❤️
It certainly is.
Pickled walnuts are also an option.
June 24, St John's Day is typically when they are ready to pick. I would definitely use the highest alcohol volume (over 90%) for steeping as a normal vodka gives a mediocre result 😘
What a beautiful property & home you have. Love the videos you do, sharing with us. Makes me envious 😉. Will all the walnuts last thru the year? Do you crack & shell them and then freeze them?
All will be revealed in later videos I am sure Jackie xx
Loved this video and getting a glimpse of your beautiful chateau and grounds. What do you do with all those walnuts??? Just curious!
I will be using as many as we can - but will probably give some away to neighbours and people who help us 😘
❤
❤️
♡
Walnuts seem to taste best fresh out of the shell. They are my favorite, but shelled walnuts don’t have the same flavor.
I will experiment Valeria 😃
Loved this. Would a litter picker he useful to pick them up?
By hand you can grab a load at one go Fairc a litter picker would be one at a time - but it would save my back 😃
Whose job will it be to crack all of them? Will you have enough room in your freezer to store the nutmeats after cracking? I'm surprised no squirrels or animals ate them on the ground.
They didn't get a chance Selective Outrage 😃 I am buying Carl a new pair of crackers 😉
Do you live in a squirrel free zone?!! I have a tree laden but doubt I will be able to leave them on the tree long enough for the cases to break open as a naughty ecureil of 3 will take them first!!
I'm sorry if you have already mentioned it, but did you name your property, if so how did you choose it?
In a video coming soon I think Sandy 😘
