Where can I get Buckeyes?

[PrincessPeach]

Does anyone happen to know of any place in the Columbus area where I could get a rather large quantity of buckeye nuts this week? Just plain, unpolished, undrilled buckeyes... maybe a couple hundred.

I've seen a bunch for sale on ebay, but are there any stores around that sell them?

Good luck getting a response. This place is like a crypt today. :sleep2:

Try calling local craft supply shops, Peach. Or florists? If they don't carry em, ask them for recommendations.

CANDY BUCKEYES

1 stick butter
1 box powdered sugar
1 1/2 c. peanut butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 pkg. (12 oz.) chocolate chips
1/2 stick paraffin

Mix butter, sugar, peanut butter and vanilla. Form into small balls. Cool.Melt chocolate and paraffin in top of double boiler. Stick a toothpick in the candy ball and dip into the chocolate mixture, leaving part of the top uncovered. It will resemble a buckeye. They can be frozen.

Call your local tree farm. They might have a bunch or be willing to let you collect some.

That might be a bit too time consuming for your needs at this point, I'm guessing.....

You can go up to my mom's house and pick as many as you want! I took a whole grocery bag full of them. :)

Paper or plastic?

There are several buckeye trees along the 5th and 6th holes at Bent Tree golf course. I am very familiar with them as they border the out of bounds. They may let you walk out there and grab a bunch.

Peach - You know this is the last place in the world you should be asking for nuts!

I'm surprised it took that long...:!

Don't extend too far when you reach for the nuts this time... :p
