Walnut harvest

The first 100 pounds started officially drying today. Justin set up two saw horses and the double-chicken wire rack in the entry (thank you for that) and a fan will run on low speed for the next week or so.

Only 50 pounds fit in a single layer, so these boxes will wait for the second round. I will weigh the walnuts again after they’ve dried and expect a 20% loss. After shelling, I should get about 40 pounds of nutmeats.
