Hi, I’m Ryan, and I am selling you the best tasting nut there is: the hickory nut (well, when they’re in season).
I’m currently sold out of all hickory nuts.
It’s still a bit early in the season to predict the harvest, but I’m optimistic. I see signs that this will be a productive year. Typically, I harvest the last few weeks of September into Mid-October. Nuts are ready to ship for Thanksgiving (Lord willing). If you want to be in the loop, then drop your email address below.

Man, do I love hickory nuts! There is no other nut that compares.
- Eat them raw
- You can bake with them.
- Make a delicious milk
- make syrup
- use the shells to smoke meat
I like to make a big pile of them and dump it into my mouth!
These hickory nuts were harvested in the autumn of 2021 from the 500+ hickory trees that I have mapped.
I lovingly separate out the Grade A nuts. You can read more about the process here or watch my YouTube channel where I’m chronicling my experience harvesting, processing, and selling hickory nuts.

Unfortunately, I don’t sell shelled hickory nuts at this time. I really wish I did! As you probably know, it is work to shell hickory nuts. There’s just no way around it. I deal with hundreds of pounds of hickory nuts every season. It just isn’t cost-effective for me to shell the nuts. I think the tedious shelling process is one of the main reasons we haven’t seen them in the grocery store. Well, I’ve eaten a whole lot of hickory nuts, and I’m learning the most efficient ways to process them. Right now, for shagbarks, it’s the Texan York Nut Sheller.
One of my main goals with this business is to figure out a way to mechanize the hickory nut shelling process. I’ll channel my inner Buckminster Fuller and try to invent something. I’ll report back to you soon. If you see hickory nuts in the grocery store, then just know that I did it!
