Planting Black Walnut in Alabama

[Post a Follow Up] [Post to this category]
From: bonnie hester City: GREENVILLE, AL
I am thinking of planting about 40 acres in black walnut trees. I have done some research and found that the Purdue #1 is a possible good choice. Are there other black walnut farms in Alabama? Is there a market to sell them here? Does anyone have experience with the Purdue #1?

Hi Bonnie: I strongly encourage you to work w/ a local Alabama state forester because local knowledge always prevails -- especially when it concerns planting and managing eastern black walnut! http://www.forestry.alabama.gov
