16 oz BLACK WALNUTS Seeds Nuts Farm Grown Juglans Nigra Dehusked Ready to Plant

Plant 'em or eat 'em! These in-the-shell black walnuts are naturally farm-grown in the Green Hills of Northwest Missouri. Harvested in Fall 2023, they are dehusked, cleaned and naturally cured. They remain unpackaged in dry, cold storage until shipment. Our black walnuts are grown from generations-old, mature trees without using chemicals or pesticides. Small traces of dust and husk may remain on the shell. 1 pound (16 oz) will yield at  least 60 nuts. 

Shelled black walnuts are a superfood! Use them in desserts, pies, cakes, muffins, ice cream, salads, protein shakes, smoothies, and more! Black walnuts are low in carbs with 75% more protein than English walnuts. 

For those planting trees, keep these facts in mind:

• full sun with moderate moisture and loamy, well-drained soil, such as a hillside
• native to the Eastern United States, they grow well in climate zones 4 - 9
• may grow up 60 to 90 feet in height with a crown spread up to 100 feet
• flowers May-June, fruits in September-October
• make an excellent shade tree and are drought-tolerant
• have aromatic, yellowish-green leaves
• produce a fragrant, bright yellow-green, citrus-like husk surrounding the nut

Younger trees may produce walnuts every other year. A mature tree may produce 100s to 1000s of walnuts annually. The hardwood is especially prized for woodworking and the husks have many commercial uses. Maturing groves of Black Walnut trees enhance both natural diversity and land value.

The health benefits and medicinal properties of black walnuts are well-established. They are a good source of antioxidants, high in tannins, and the extracts have antioxidant and antibacterial activities.
