Frequently asked questions

Yes, that's possible. Just like with regular walnuts and many other stone fruits, you can plant a nut or pip in the ground to grow into a tree..

But... the characteristics of that tree won't be an exact copy of the characteristics of the mother tree. Just as you're not an exact copy of your parents. This means it can take a long time for the new tree to bear fruit. The size, shape, and flavour of the fruit will also differ from the fruit you planted.

If you want the exact same characteristics as the parent tree, you need to clone. This can be done by grafting a young shoot onto a rootstock. Grafting Juglans varieties is a specialized job. All our heartnuts (Schubert, Imshu, Campbell CW1 and CW4, Kalmar) grow on grafted trees.​

The Nutsbedrijf is a nut grower, not a tree nursery. We don't any expertise in grafting, sowing, or growing nut trees.

In their shell, kept in dry and well ventilated condiotions, walnuts and hazelnuts will keep for at least a year. 

Shelled buts will stay fresh for a couple of monhs in an airtight conmtainer.

The press operates from 3 kilos of shelled nuts. 

With walnuts you kan expect a returm 40% to 50%: 1 kilo of shelled nuts will yield about 400 to 500 ml oil. The oil content of walnuts varies between varieties and from year to year. That's why these figures Het oliegehalte van walnoten schommelt van soort tot soort en van jaar tot jaar. Daarom zijn deze cijfers slechts een indicatie. 
Bij hazelnoten ligt het rendement eerder rond de 30% tot 40%.

No. The process takes too long.
Starting the press requires at least half an hour, the pressing itself takes time. 
Freshly pressed oil is very couldy. We only start bottling once the oil has cleared. 
You will be notified when the oil is ready for collection. Allow for 3 to 4 weeks.

It is possible but we are not keen. The older your nuts are, the bigger the risk that your oil will turn rancid. 
It is your responsibility to supply a fresh ingredient of decent quality.  
If you wouldn't eat a nut, you don't want it to wind up in your oil either. You will always taste a bad one. 

You can order nuts from as little as 250 grams.

We send orders to all EU countries.
