Hazelnuts are harvested annually in mid-autumn. As autumn comes to a close, the trees drop their nuts and tree leaves. Nuts from the hazelnuts’ trees need to be harvested before the autumn rains. As the nuts ripen, they drop from the tree over approximately 6 weeks. Gather Hazelnuts from the ground. Some of the fallen Hazelnuts may be wormy or even empty. It is very easy to distinguish between those nuts that are bad from good one. Place the nuts in water and gloating nuts are the duds. Discard any floaters. Also, insect infested nuts will have holes in the shell and must be tossed out. Once Hazelnuts picking has been accomplished and it’s time to dry the nuts out. The nuts are ready for collection in autumn as soon as husks become yellow colour.
