The 106th Northern Nut Growers Conference will be held this July in LaCrosse!
July 27-28, speakers from across North America will share their experience with a variety of nuts – chestnuts, hazelnuts, oaks, butternuts, hickory nuts, walnuts, even cashews. Sessions will cover breeding, crop management, marketing and business development.
The tour organized for July 28th includes a hike through a native chestnut grove, a tour of Mark Shepard’s polyculture farm, and a look at the American Hazelnut Company’s processing facility. The tour ends with dinner at the Rooted Spoon.

I haven’t heard of this conference before – will there be one in 2017? Would love to attend, as I’ve taken up growing pecan trees and have several on my property now… Thanks!
