Pretty cool - we just realized that we have black walnut trees near us! How do you harvest the walnuts? We read that the skin of them can be a little poisonous to handle so we’ve not opened one but would love to have some fresh walnuts.

The trees are looking good for sure!

We harvest the walnuts and when we do we wear gloves. Handling the walnuts without gloves will stain your hands black as night. After husking them it takes about 2 months before the nut inside has dried and is ready for consumption.

If you are interested here are a few blogs that I put up a few years ago about harvesting them.
