2020 HAZELNUTS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE
May 2020 Delicious new season's hazelnuts are now ready to buy in sizes of 1kg, 2.5kg and 4.5kg, and can be posted to anywhere in Australia via Express Post. We only begin shelling (or cracking) your nuts when you place your order, so they will arrive super-fresh at your door! Visit our shop to place your order. 
2020 HARVEST
Apr 2020 The harvesting and processing of our new season nuts has been completed. The nuts have a little more drying to do before they will be perfect and ready for eating. We anticipate they will be available for purchase around the middle of May. The quality of the nuts this year is superb! Please let us know if you would like to be on the waiting list.
2019 HARVEST
May 2019 The 2019 harvest is finished, the hazelnuts are drying in the warm and cosy surrounds of the hazelnut shed, and we are happy to report that our yield is the biggest yet! We are also delighted with the quality of the nuts. Details of how to purchase are available here. Our hazelnut farm is also featured in a recent story in Tasmanian Country. |
2018 HARVEST UPDATE
May 2018
Due to a lighter-than-expected harvest, and strong demand from existing customers, we are very sorry to say that the 2018 harvest is now sold out. Seasonal conditions adversely affected our crop this year, and also that of many other hazelnut growers in Tasmania. We are sorry to disappoint those waiting for nuts!
We do have a waiting list for the 2019 crop, so please let us know if you are interested ... simply email us at mountrolandhazelnuts@hotmail.com.
