Howdy!
I am looking to collect green, on the tree, preferably smaller black walnuts. I know I am a bit late in the season for the youngest walnuts, but I am still hopeful. If you have a black walnut tree that I could reach by ladder, I would like to collect as much as I can. Greener the better. If you know of a black walnut grove around the city that is on city property, I kindly ask you point me in the right direction. I use them to make nocino, a black walnut liquor laced with a little juniper, cinnamon bark, and coffee beans, depending on the batch. If I can harvest them asap, the nocino will be ready by next Christmas😅. It’s a long wait, but absolutely delicious poured over ice cream . If you direct me to an ample harvest, I’ll send with you a part of the nocino batch (you’d just need to store it in a dark cool place until next year). Thanks for your time!
