The growth and harvestation of Brazil nuts is the most unique of all nuts. Nearly all Brazil nuts come from wild trees scattered throughout the Amazon fain forests. Brazil trees are giant evergreens indigenous to the Amazon Basin. The trees can exeed 150 feet in height, towering over other tropical vegetation. Large, spherical fruits resembling coconuts weigh approximately 4 pounds each. When the fruits ripen, they fall to the ground. Watch out below!
Inside the outer shell lies 12 to 24 Brazil nuts which we sell already shelled.
