We’ll share more as time allows on our process for taking high quality named cultivar nut seeds and cold stratifying them for winter storage for nursery work and seed sales. For now, this is a short and sweet synopsis of a pretty darn productive day in the mid-fall. Such abundance from the trees to try to collect and sequester for future enjoyment!

Making me hungry for some walnuts. Love this channel, so much practical advice.
Great video thanks!
I’m glad to know that having maggots in the hull doesn’t spoil them.
Do you plan to sell seedlings from the cultivar seed? Or seed from the cultivars?
Do you happen to remember the names of the cultivars?
I was a judge at the science fair where the kid who invented the nut wizard first presented it. I'm glad it took off for him.
Black walnut season is upon us 🙌
Haha how perfect! I have a bunch of walnuts that I need to figure out how to process and here's your video.
Thank you!!
Thank you for showing your method. Please do show us the rest of the story.
A weak crop of black walnuts up here in Ontario zone 5b of the trees I've observed (or last year was a great crop of squirrels). Still excited to see the young ones grow, and have a lot stored from last year still. Thanks once again for the useful video on processing this very underrated crop!
I really love the way you load down that little car more than the average pickup truck driving around ha! Reminds me of the old pictures of model t jalopies stacked to the gills with food going to market
Do you have any processing videos for English walnuts? I seem to recall that you sell trees for these. Thx.
This is great. So much potential in each and every tree! I would totally help.
I hate walnuts.
Haha more for everyone else!
A harvesting and processing video! Thank you so much for filling my request. More like this please!
If you had a bit more space, would it be worth also grabbing a few bags of leaves at the same time?
Also, what are those green shoots popping up around the walnut trees? They seem pretty vigorous.
Do the squirrels not get them?
cool vid
Thank you sean. You are awesome. Another great update on how to make life easier on the farm. ❤
Really cool, I like the shelf dehusker. I've just been rolling a bread knife down the center and the stirring them in a bucket of water with a stick and spraying everything off after draining. Got them drying in paper bags and cardboard boxes on top of the fridge. Nowhere near the amount you guys have done, but I'm still happy about it. Foraging nuts is the best, so satisfying, I feel like a human animal in the best way possible when forgaing real sustenance. The pecan trees in Springdale, UT were so fun to harvest, much easier than goopy walnuts, and so tasty. You could easily get fat just from foraged pecans there when they are in season, absurd abundance getting smashed on the sidewalks. Some toursits grab one here and there, but most remain blind to it.
I just made a black walnut tincture this year. Black walnuts are my favorite nut. They have the most flavor of all the nuts I have tried and I just love them. I may try a black walnut extract for baking this year also. They are a amazing nut from a beautiful tree
What an amazing harvest! This is amazing. 🤩
Wow cool stuff! Cheers
