Daniels Family Farm Welcome to Daniels Family Farm fact page.
Daniels Family Farm is proud to raise and market quality, fresh walnuts. Visit our walnut product page for prices. English walnuts are among some of the healthiest of foods. Walnuts are high in food energy and a good source of vegetable protein. They are low in saturated fat and sodium and are cholesterol-free. Walnuts contribute necessary fiber as well as important minerals including iron, potassium, phosphorous, copper and zinc. Walnuts are one of the best plant sources of Omega-3 and are considered the most heart healthy nut. Walnuts are also known for their high antioxidant activity. A 2002 study conducted in Norway showed that walnuts rank second only to rose hips in their antioxidant content. California produces virtually all of the walnuts grown commercially in the United States and are harvested from September through October. The English walnut tree may grow up to 100 feet tall Walnut shells, once considered waste may now be used in glues and plastics and in solutions for cleaning and polishing metal surfaces. The wood of the walnut tree is valuable as a hard wood for furniture. Whether you want a 5 pound box or a ton, we will do our best to serve your needs. Give us a call. We'd love to hear from you. |
