FARM VLOG: SO WHATS IN THE BOX?

What happens here

Before planting, the farmer inspects the walnuts for any bug holes, discarding those that appear compromised. He emphasizes the importance of wearing nitrile gloves (like those used for mechanic work) while handling walnuts, as their husks can stain fingers black. He then demonstrates cracking open a walnut to show the edible nut inside and briefly samples it.

Goal: Prepare walnuts for planting by removing husks and checking for pests.

Tools and materials

  • Nitrile Gloves
  • Black Walnuts
