HAZELNUTS

The hazelnut (Corylus avellana) was named Oregon's state nut by the 1989 Oregon State Legislature. Oregon grows 99 percent of the entire U.S. commercial crop.

The Oregon hazelnut, unlike wild varieties, grows on single-trunked trees up to 30 or 40 feet tall. Adding a unique texture and flavor to recipes and products, hazelnuts are preferred by chefs, bakers, confectioners, food manufacturers and homemakers worldwide.
