Come October, Ozark wild black walnut trees shed large bright green nuts, which, when hulled, can fetch up to $16 per hundred pounds at regional collection sites including Curran Feed Store in Gentry. The whole nuts are then transported to Hammon Products Company in Stockton, Missouri for shelling, packaging and world-wide sale.
