Organic Green Walnuts from Livermore Red Walnut Tree (Raw, Unpasteurized)

Green Walnuts are a special variety of walnut that is harvested before ripe and unripe. As such, these are ONLY Harvestable in May and June. We will receive pre-orders in April. These green walnuts from the Red Livermore walnut have a unique flavor, with tastes of citrus and tartness, with less tannic acids making them great for baking. As the nuts mature they become dark brown in color and develop the traditional nutty flavor associated with walnuts. They are a great source of protein and healthy fats, as well as numerous vitamins and minerals. Green walnuts can be used in many recipes including salads, desserts, pickles, and chutneys. They also make an excellent addition to smoothies or trail mixes. The unique flavor and texture of green walnuts make them a favorite ingredient in vegetarian dishes like stir-fries, veggie burgers, and nut-based sauces. Green walnuts can also be roasted or candied for a sweet treat. For the health-conscious consumer, green walnuts are a great alternative to traditional snacks.

About The Farm:

Handy Farms is owned and operated by the property’s residents: The Handy Family. Clayton Handy had a dream to create a fully sustainable farm. He dreamed of having his food products free from pesticides, and herbicides, and as nutritionally dense as possible. The result is an agricultural system that preserves the health of the farmer, consumer, and mother nature. 

All products at Handy Farms are grown using a regenerative agriculture system. This means the diverse plant and fungal ecology is planned in such a way that the crop's nutritional needs are met by this underground network. As a result of the dense understory soil organic matter is also building. This improves the soil’s water-holding capacity and pulls carbon from the atmosphere into the soil where it acts as a vital building component in plant growth. How is that for reducing carbon footprint?

The dream would be incomplete if it weren’t for the children’s laughter as they play throughout the orchard and dense vegetation beneath. The vision of Handy Farms includes Family, Nutrition, and Earth. It is truly a labor of love.
