Happy Halloween!

We're thrilled to be in the Taste of the States Chef Demo at the National Restaurant Show. The chefs showcased the versatile ways you can use hazelnuts, incuding these sauteed hazelnuts and goat cheese, with ghost pepper honey from our friends at Saratoga Tea & Honey Co.

Receiving stations are crucial to ensuring quality in Oregon Hazelnuts. At these stations, nuts are quickly dropped off from the farm, washed, and dried before being sent off to larger processing facilities where the finishing touches are done.
