In shell orders should be air dried and ready to ship end of this week or early next week. Light halves and pieces aren't expected to be ready until around Thanksgiving. If you are added to our email list I will send an update email soon. -Asa
Certified Organic Chandler Walnuts from the 9.5 acre organic orchard I manage across the road from our family farm. Hand gleaned, ambient air dried, and shipped directly after harvest and drying. Cost includes shipping. Typically shipped by early November, perhaps a bit earlier. Selling primarily as pre-order only since the bulk of this crop will be mechanically harvested and sold to a processor. I may keep a few extra pounds to sell throughout the year, but they will likely be significantly more pricey. Note that these prices include shipping, making them far more affordable than most organic walnuts. It's a once a year thing.
Expect 10-15% dark nuts or blanks and some tip shrivel, which is typical of Chandler walnuts. Pictures are from a sample crack out and box from 2024, but please do note that the percentages will vary. There are inevitably some imperfect nuts when buying in shell, so please understand that prior to ordering. Also for those who ask, yes these are guaranteed non-GMO. Anything certified organic is non-GMO by requirement. Also, at the time of writing this there are currently no GMO walnut trees yet, and these trees were planted a couple decades ago using traditionally bred and propagated Chandler walnuts with black walnut root stock.
