"You've probably eaten nuts for most of your life, as most people have, but perhaps assumed that they are difficult to grow or that they require a special climate to thrive. Maybe you've been growing your own fruit and vegetables for a while and are wondering what it takes to grow nuts? Or you've increasingly heard how healthy it is to eat nuts? Well, this book is designed to help you discover what nuts are available, and how to grow, harvest and process them so that you can cultivate your own delicious and bountiful crops." --From introduction.
