HARVEST INFORMATION

The Crain Walnut Shelling, Inc.'s main facility is located at 10695 Decker Avenue, Los Molinos, CA. We will begin operation with the first harvest after September 1 and close December 1 or shortly thereafter depending on the weather conditions. 

Andrew Marks will be dispatching CWS trucks for pickups at the Sacramento Valley hullers. He is available to answer your calls and handle the logistics for you. Andrew can be reached at the CWS office from 7:00am until 5:00pm daily at extension #7106, and by cell phone (530) 567-5887. The receiving office can be reached by contacting LaMona Brownen, our receiving director, at the main office (530) 529-1585, ext #29, from 7:00am to 4:00pm weekdays and weekends during the peak of harvest by appointment.

In San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties, your field representative in that area will handle the logistics for you.

Again this year, Tri-Counties Walnut Co., located at 10493 13th Ave., Hanford, CA., will be lending support to consolidate less than load shipments.

KEEPING THE QUALITY IN YOUR WALNUT DELIVERIES

All walnut deliveries should be cleaned, washed, hulled and dried prior to being delivered to receiving stations. 
Dehydrators should have a target moisture level for in-shell delivery to receiving stations that does not exceed 8% moisture. This moisture threshold allows for walnuts to be stored without degradation in storage.
