Walnut Tree Farm

I know a sawyer with a portable mill who will cut them on site. His prices to cut are very good. I just sent you an email.

John I got your email and will touch base with you again soon. I also sent you an email earlier this week about the walnut guy you were using. I am actually picking up some boards from him today to finish a project. I am planning on going down to Fresno in a couple of weeks just to look around. I am not to sure of what he has he said to come take a look to get an idea of how big but when he asked about how long I wanted the logs I said 8-12 ft but seemed like each tree would be multiple logs. Typically I walnut farms keep trees fairly low to the ground. I will update you when I see more and know more. But I wanted to start looking for a sawyer that is either in Fresno or if I should haul back to Sacramento.

From my recollect, the Walnut groves in CA. are English Walnut, a great wood but lighter in both color and weight than the Black Wallnut. The trees are quite abit smaller also, but still a great find for you. Congradulations, have fun with it.

Call Joey Sommawang in Fresno.

I’m not interested in selling any of them at this point. I just want them cut so I can start storing them. I still need to see what he has.

LOL you go SoCal..:)

They are most likely black walnut rootstock with english walnut grafted on top. I wonder it there is any special burl-like pattern where the 2 types meet.
