Sweet and fresh chestnuts for the Holidays
Our chestnuts ripen in late October and are the freshest chestnuts you can buy for the Holidays. Our chestnuts are very sweet because they are grown in the cool climate of Northern Michigan.
Large and beautiful chestnuts
Our family and friends pick up every chestnut. No machine marks. No dull appearance. Our chestnuts are large and from grafted cultivars known worldwide for quality.
Weevil-Free and Pest-Free
We are outside of the range of nearly every chestnut pest. Your nuts will never have weevils, and your nuts will not be treated with heat or chemicals.
Chestnut Roasting Season Has Begun
Chestnut Orchard at Rest - November 1st, 2026
The chestnut harvest is wrapped up with about 15,000 lbs. of chestnuts harvested during 2026. We remain very busy shipping chestnuts and filling orders. Thank you for all the support of our family and farm.
Our attention is now shifting to cutting Christmas greenery for wreath makers. Stay tuned as we share all we know about 'brush cutting' as it is called in Northern Michigan.
Take care and have a good week!
Chestnut harvest season is over
The chestnut orchard remains green as we head into November 2026.
