Back with the new season of collecting numegs They keep falling with the outer cover opened It is a hassle as it is only during the rainy season that we get to collect them. We have to open them gently separate the mace and dry them. Mace gets mildew if they are not dried properly and with the hiding sun it is difficult Both mace and the nutmegs are prices high and we sell them once they are ready

You have a cash crop there. Nutmegs are so costly. They have so many health benefits.

Can you imagine that I had to order them through Amazon because nowhere in the store I was able to find them?

@allknowing - I visited all stores I thought could sell nutmegs. I ordered through Amazon and the package came from Greece.

Nutmeg trees are planted two at a time which I believe help pollination
