Today is ! While we love celebrating all nuts, we wanted to share just how much there is to celebrate when it comes to Black Walnuts, from flavor to nutrition, sustainability to rich history. Here are a few things that make wild Black Walnuts stand out in the wonderful world of nuts:
- They are one of the most sustainable nuts on earth! Wild grown with no disruption of natural land and hand harvested each year. They rely solely on rainfall, not man-made irrigation.
- They contain more protein per serving than any other tree nut, even 57% more than English Walnuts. They are also packed with healthy fats and essential nutrients.
- They have a bold, rich flavor unlike any other, considered a luxury ingredient by chefs with their robust & unique taste.
- They have a rich American history. The only walnut native to the U.S., grown the same way since the earliest days of Native Americans.
Happy National Nut Day!
