Tour Our Neighbours Hazelnut Farm!

Would you like to learn more about Ontario hazelnut farms and where you might find fresh Ontario hazelnuts?

Our neighbour, Nutcracker Ridge Farm is hosting an Ontario Hazelnut Association farm tour on July 22 @1:00 - 4:00 pm in Uxbridge!

The purpose of the tours are to:

  • make people aware that hazelnuts are being grown in Ontario
  • encourage the buying of delicious local hazelnuts
  • teach people about hazelnut farming
  • encourage people to plant hazelnut orchards
  • encourage interested people to join the Ontario Hazelnut Association (OHA).
If you are interested, go to the Ontario Hazelnut Association website:  OntarioHazelnuts.com, to register before the event fills up! 
$15 per person or $20 per family $20 (fee goes to help the non-profit OHA develop this new industry in Ontario.) OHA Members are free!

There are also 4 other hazelnut farm tours available on the OHA website on other dates!
