About us
The California Walnut Board and Commission proudly represent the interests of over 4,600 dedicated growers and approximately 70 handlers, who produce more than 99% of the U.S. supply of English walnuts and contribute to nearly half of the world’s walnut trade. Our mission is simple: to share the exceptional quality, sustainability and benefits of California-grown walnuts with the world. We support the growth of the walnut industry through innovative research, marketing initiatives and adherence to the highest production standards. We engage and educate consumers about walnuts through TV, print and digital ads, as well as public relations activities and educational programs. Both domestically and in export markets, our marketing activities educate consumers, the trade and health professionals on the benefits of California walnuts. For food and beverage manufacturers, California walnuts provide a premium, plant-based ingredient that enhances the nutrition, taste and market appeal of packaged foods. As a source of alpha-linolenic acid omega-3s, walnuts are the ideal choice for companies looking to meet growing consumer demand for clean-label and sustainable ingredients. From snacks to baked goods, to plant-based meat and dairy alternatives, California walnuts deliver unmatched versatility and value to packaged foods and restaurant menus. We’re passionate about helping food manufacturers and foodservice operators bring innovative walnut-based products and menu items to life. From concept to market, we’re here to provide the knowledge, resources and support needed to turn ideas into reality—empowering you to meet emerging trends and consumer needs.

Shelly's a friend of flaxseeds because they have something in common. They are both an excellent source of omega-3s. Together, they are nutritious powerhouse that can be combined to create a functional snack mix, cluster, bite or food bar. One ounce of walnuts offers 18 grams of total fat, 2.5 grams of monounsaturated fat and 13 grams of polyunsaturated fat including 2.5 grams of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)—the plant-based omega-3. ALA has been associated with potential benefits for heart health, brain health and inflammation.

A new study suggests that a handful of walnuts a day may keep the professor away for college students. Wow! Great new research coming out of the University of Reading. The study of 32 healthy young adults found that participants who ate 50g of walnuts mixed into a breakfast cereal or yogurt led to better memory performance later in the day compared to eating an equivalent caloric breakfast without nuts. This study positions walnuts as the perfect ingredient for functional breakfast foods focused on cognition. 💬 Message us to collaborate on a new yogurt, snack mix, cereal or bakery food with walnuts. While these results are encouraging, larger and longer term studies are needed to confirm effects as well as to clarify these findings in other populations. One ounce of walnuts offers 18 grams of total fat, 2.5 grams of monounsaturated fat and 13 grams of polyunsaturated fat including 2.5 grams of alpha-linolenic acid (ALA)—the plant-based omega-3. ALA has been associated with potential benefits for heart health, brain health and inflammation. Learn more at https://bit.ly/3FkvOx0.
