Your post was like a sightseeing work through you Black Walnut trees and so pleased your reaped an abundant harvest. I have to ask - What are you planning to do with all your walnuts one you get them out of the outer shells? My mind is in a buzz with ideas like store them for winter, use them in cooking, eat them as they are a very healthy nut or sell them. I daresay you must be able to get a good price for bucket loads of fresh good quality walnuts.

Hello there Angie, thanks for stopping by. From what I've read, we should be able to preserve them for a year or more if they are properly stored, vacuum-sealed, and placed in a deep freezer. @farm-mom already has a dozen ways she plans on using them, and at the top of that list is to mix them with our homemade maple syrup and drown a bowl of vanilla ice cream in them.
We will also use them in bread and some stirfry meals.
I never realized just how pricy walnuts are. The cheapest price I could find was $15.99 a pound when they are out of the shell.
Take care my friend!
You are on a gold mine of health and wellness with home grown walnuts and yes they are very pricey to buy. I have learned to freeze my walnuts so they don't go off which is what i found they do if left on the shelf in the pantry.
Walnuts, organic home made maple syrup and ice-cream sounds divine. Have a wonderful day.
