Our Biggest Chestnuts – Roast or Grow Your Own Tree
These jumbo organic chestnuts are the largest of our harvest—and they're not just for eating. Many customers use them to grow their own chestnut trees, thanks to their excellent germination rate.
These nuts come from our Dunstan hybrid chestnut trees, which are naturally resistant to chestnut blight and ideal for sustainable growing. As we often say, chestnuts “don’t like wet feet”—so they thrive on hillsides, slopes, and land that may otherwise go unused.

Fresh from our 40-year-old orchard

These chestnuts are ideal for anyone who wants to enjoy the flavor of fall—or plant your own Dunstan chestnut tree. Ted is happy to answer questions for aspiring growers, too.
General guidelines - you’ll wrap your jumbo chestnuts and store in your crisper 45-90 days to replicate winter. Plant the seed, and as your seedling grows, you’ll repot until it’s ready to go in the ground at 24-36.” Make sure you protect your young tree from deer - they love eating the leaves! They will grow zones 5-9.
