Welcome to Z's Nutty Ridge Nursery. The nursery for cold hardy nut trees if you need one for your yard or a thousand for your orchard.
Why we exist and we're happy you are here!
Over 30 years ago we realized a large percentage of land was abandoned by farmers throughout the Northeast. The fields were getting filled with invasive bushes, sumacs, maples, and ashes. Taking natures lead, the search was on to find what trees could be planted to make the fields productive again.
After much research, we planted many thousands of nut trees of all types to learn what would grow in our colder USDA zones. It turns out the best nut trees were native to our region, just hybridized for disease resistance and large tasty bumper crops of nuts. Take advantage of our experience and buy our proven trees and named cultivars. You can have nuts in as little as two years. In fact, we have hazelnut cultivars you can only buy from us.
If you want to learn more just go to our hazelnuts and chestnuts information pages. Nut trees once established can out live you while providing healthy food security and sustainability.
