Growing Nuts in Cooler Climates
In this interview that first broadcast live on the Food Garden Life Radio Show in 2018, we chat with nut-growing expert Ernie Grimo from Grimo Nut Nursery in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.When Grimo set out to grow nuts in his yard, he couldn’t find local nurseries selling plants. That was the beginning of his foray into collecting, breeding, and selling nut trees.At his farm and nursery in Niagara, Grimo grows a wide variety of cold-adapted nuts including heartnut, butternut, Persian walnut, black walnut, pine nut, hazelnut, chestnut, beech, hickory, and pecan. He also has crosses such as the “hican,” a hickory-pecan cross.
