WALNUT HARVEST COMPLETED IN CALIFORNIA: BEST PROSPECTS FOR THE NEW SEASON

Ideal weather conditions have contributed significantly to the outstanding quality and bright color of this year's crop. California walnuts are shipped year-round, and new storage technology is improving the freshness we want on a year-round basis. This can include vacuum sealing or nitrogen flushing, helping expand the taste life so that walnut flavor is unique all the way through the cycle. The key to preserving their unique woodsy, creamy, buttery flavor is to ship and store walnuts below 15 °C.

In conjunction with the continuous efforts in trade and industry programs aimed at enhancing consumer awareness of California walnuts, we help retailers and foodservice operators, food manufacturers, and ingredient buyers boost consumption by developing consumer-focused sales promotions, on restaurant menus and in new product innovations. Our support extends to individual projects, encompassing:

• POS promotions
• Advice for product development
• Support with product launches
• Trade news and reports about California walnuts
• Use of the California Walnuts logo, e.g. on packaging
