Buying Nuts at Wholesale Prices

By Deeda in Seattle (Guest Post)

I will follow this post to see if anyone knows of good sources. I usually substitute bulk raw sunflower seeds, pepitas (pumpkin seeds), and sesame seeds from our local Fred Meyer store for use in my granola recipe. But peanuts seem to be the cheapest for brittle or candies, however. Sometimes I get a good deal on walnuts in bags at the stores on sale.

I bought nuts in the shell at the Farmer's market this year, and they're so fresh and flavorful. Ask at the Co-op extension office who grew them, and who sells them. Ask at the farmer's feed store who has nut trees and call them to ask if they'd sell out of what they have stored up. Happy crackin'!

Where do you get them for under $4 a pound. We pay near $6!

You would have to pay for shipping and handling if you mail ordered them or bought them from the internet.

Costco is your first and best choice.
