Update September 6th: Hulls are still green, shells are hardened. Kernels inside are formed and not gelatinous any more. Hulls will start to split at the end of the month. The green hulls often have a few defects or slight staining with a tinge of sunburn on the occasional nut in them now as opposed to the pictures from earlier in the summer but they are still quite beautiful and always picked fresh from the tree after you order. -Asa
Update July 17th: The hulls are still green and great for tinctures, etc. The shells are getting quite hard now. They require a good deal of force to cut, although they still can be cut. The kernels inside have mostly turned to immature meats vs. the jelly like substance, although some of the nuts still have some jelly in the center.
Update July 9th: The shells are beginning to harden and the jelly like developing kernels are solidifying. This means that it is too late in the season for some uses of green walnuts. Please verify exactly what stage of green walnuts you need before ordering.
NOT sprayed with anything. No insecticides, fungicides, pesticides, etc. Just fresh picked green walnuts from the same trees that grow our Better Walnuts in shell and light halves and pieces, just picked earlier while they are still green. Customers use them for a variety of culinary uses. In the comments as you order you specify either Hartley or Chandler variety, otherwise we will just pick a variety for you. For green black walnuts, see our green black walnuts product. The stage of development and size of the walnuts will depend on the time of year you order, just like anywhere else you buy green walnuts from. The number of walnuts per pound varies depending on the time of year harvested, but is typically 6-12 nuts.
