Walnuts can be delivered to the factory for drying during April and May. Walnuts dried privately can be delivered from June onward. Annual collections are organised for Marlborough, Nelson, North Canterbury and Central Otago where the walnut crops are pooled and sent in one shipment to minimise freight costs. Please make contact to be put on a relevant list.
North Island walnuts are purchased on a case by case basis - depending on the cultivar and quality. Very large 'Wilson's Wonder' type walnuts are not suitable for processing as the freight costs outweigh the recoverable saleable kernel.
A supplier consignment note is provided so that records can be accurately processed.
