Nut Harvests 2017

Cracked open maybe a dozen of the pignut hickory nuts that have been drying out for a while. They are tough to extract and crack properly, but I got some good size meat out of them. Very tasty, hope I can get some more before they’re played out.

About 4 gallons of Bountiful butternuts . Largest harvest to date . Tree about 14 - 15 years since planted . I have 2 grafts take . One about 5 years ago and one this year .

Are butternuts as hard to shell out as black walnuts? They look pretty similar.

No the shell is thinner .

I thought you did a great job with the video. I like the cracker. Are those files he welded on for grip?

Yes those are files, Johnny.

It’s a great cracker.

Thanks,

Dax
