I have never seen the amount of walnuts being produced this year. Anyone else noticed how abundant they are? If a fellow wanted to work his a** off, get black hands, all for a very limited payoff, the opportunity is there. Not me. If my wife needs walnuts for Christmas baking, she knows which isle to go to in the grocery store.

Don't know about your neck of the woods but because of the rain and snow we finally got last winter I've got acorns all over the place this year where there were many if any in the previous few years. Same reason for all the fires out this way this year. More fuel means more fire. Dayumend if ya do, dayumed if ya don't.

Wouldn't be so bad if there was some size to them. There's a tree on our family farm that produce's walnuts larger than a golf ball when soft husk is gone. I busted a million when I was a kid. Being the clever guy I am,I moved a coule of volinteers to my place when I bought it 39 years ago. Boy was I going to injoy busting walnuts and telling my grandkids stories. The trees produce 2 truck loads of worthless tiny nuts EVERY YEAR,I have never had a poor crop.

This is funny... wifey and I were riding the rtv around the property this weekend, and I was showing her our bumper crop of Walnuts and Butternuts. Never seen so many around here.

It's the best black walnut crop I have seen here in many years.

Heavy here in Ohio. Used to be a place in Eaton Ohio that bought them husk and all. Catch was they ran them threw a machine that removed the husks and then paid you. Grandkids can not be fooled again.

Modest crop this year on our 4 trees. Two new trees are not producing yet.
