The best fresh chestnuts
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.
Our Family Farm Story
Farm Fresh Food from Northern Michigan
Ox Heights Farm integrates family, trees, and animals in a farm ecosystem (Silvopasture). We produce chestnuts, hazelnuts, English walnuts, peaches, lamb and maple syrup.
North Star Chestnuts
Our family planted 9 Chestnut trees in 2016. Now we have 1,000 grafted European Chestnut trees. Our family has grown up in the orchard helping to care for our chestnut trees. Our family now picks up the nuts and ships them directly to you.

Picture of the week
Ogema Block locks in perfect weather - September 6th, 2026
The chestnuts are filling as we write! The chestnut crop is looking better every day and the weather has been perfect with highs around 70F and lows around 50 F. The cool and longer nights in Northern Michigan will sweeten up the chestnuts! The weather has settled into an "Omega Block" and this weather may hold for the next 7-10 days!
The peach harvest continues with about 60 bushels harvested to date. The hazelnut harvest continues too, and I may even dig some ginseng this week!
We will be selling hazelnuts, peaches, lamb, blackberries, grapes, and pears at the Rogers City Farmers Market on Friday morning. We appreciate your business and support!
Take care and have a good week!
