HAMMONS WILD BLACK WALNUTS LAND IN  SPROUTS NATIONWIDE

CHICAGO — Hammons Black Walnuts are now in Spouts Farmers Markets across the US. The eye-catching shippers.

Hammons Black Walnuts add robust, healthy variety to Sprouts’ growing fresh assortment. Wild Black Walnuts stand out because of their distinct, bold flavor, incredible versatility and impressive health benefits. Hand-harvested in the USA every fall, they are one of the few crops still picked by hand from uncultivated wild trees, making them a unique, all-natural and highly sustainable tree nut.

“We’re a fourth-generation company dedicated to bringing the incredible benefits of the American Black Walnut to the public. We’re delighted to be launching our products through Sprouts Farmers Markets, one of the premiere grocers in the US,” said Brian Hammons, president of Hammons Black Walnuts.

American Black Walnuts are catching on through the US as consumers realize how naturally flavorful they are in both sweet and savory recipes. “Year-round consumption has continued to grow due to the high protein content and other great health benefits of black walnuts but the fall and holiday seasons is when they really shine,” Hammons said.

Long popular in Missouri and throughout the central US, these indigenous nuts are unlike any other tree nut. Now they’re easy to find at any local Sprouts Farmers Market.

“We hear from folks using them in all kinds of recipes – grandma’s specialty pie, zucchini bread, harvest fall salads, stuffed sweet potatoes and the list goes on. They give recipes that signature touch,” Hammons noted.
