We sell nuts from our orchard 3 different ways. We only produce a few tons a year. Most are sold to a processor at $0.5 a pound, who does their magic, packages them and sells them via markets and places like Walmart for $4 to $6 a pound or to bakers, food processors and such.

What nuts we can process ourselves get sold at our farm stand for $5 a pound or at several local markets. The local markets pay us $5 a pound and resell at $8 a pound.

We've tried to get into local farmers market but we're on their waiting list. We have gone through the certification process with the County so we can sell at any farmers market. Here they are supposed to check and make sure you grow what you sell at the farmers market. County Ag Commissioner's office came out and inspected our orchard for the certification.
