How long can you keep walnuts?

If stored properly in the freezer your walnuts can safely keep for 1 – 2 years.  If left in the pantry you are looking at a shelf life of around 6 months.  Personally, I love eating walnuts thawed or frozen.  Just grab them straight from the freezer and chow down.  We suggest keeping them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh unless you are like us and then a full bag is an empty bag very quickly. If that is the case, we can certainly keep you in stock!

Are there health benefits of walnuts?

These are numerous.  Walnuts Improve heart function, boost bone health, improve metabolism, they help control diabetes, help prevent cancer, reduce inflammation, regulate sleep, weight management and mood booster.

What is the difference between your walnuts and the ones I buy in the grocery store?

Freshness – Our walnuts are sent directly to cold storage once they are dried and shelled.  We do not pull them out of cold storage until you order them.  Walnuts at your local store have been sitting in a warehouse or on a store shelf for who knows how long.

Taste – We have won many taste tests with our walnuts and they blow the competition away.
