Do you have a few nut trees and go a little nutty when the fruit begins to fall? Then visit with me and some other (nutty) gardeners at this Walnut Farm. This will not be a technical instruction story but a simple example of what goes on at a small WALNUT FARM. These thumbnail photos show what it takes to run a small nut farm.

I hope you enjoyed this visit... I could have the photos full size but it was getting too much for me and was going a little nutty.. ... What nut trees do you have? And how do you handle the extra nuts..
Have you ever thought about making your own wine? You would certainly need plenty
grapes, either buy them or even raise enough for yourself. Let's visit this NJ farm.
