Our lab not only tests for walnut diseases, but we maintain our own organic walnut grove with a variety of trees including about 300 of our signature Organic Chandler Walnuts as well as an assortment of stonefruits, figs, persimmons, oranges, pomelos, avocado, Jujubes, pomegranate, and even a glorious Pecan tree.
