Flowers are all around, the days are longer and the fruitlets on our trees are growing more with each day. It’s April and it’s a time when we feel an extra dose of gratitude for all of the miracles that come with this time of year. It’s a time to appreciate that even yearly growing cycles that occur with predictability are filled with wonderment. We feel energized and optimistic as we’re surrounded by all of this incredible activity out in the orchards.
When we feel this gratitude for the abundance of fruits and nuts that grow around us, we think about the farming practices that we continue to refine so we can offer great, nutritious fruits and nuts to you and your family today and for generations to come. We also feel gratitude for innovations that are made in agriculture that change how we eat. One of these innovations is the Certified Organic Red Walnut. Whoah, wait, you might say. What? Red Walnuts? Yes, believe it – we’re talking about a real, honest, Certified Organic nut that’s packed with character and health benefits.
This Walnut was developed in the early 1990s by teams at University of California, Davis, and are grown in California’s Central Valley. While they were developed by experts, they come from breeding ancient Walnut varieties together, so their beautiful redness is naturally occurring. Annual production of this nut is very rare and represents under two percent of the world’s Walnut production. It’s so rare that there’s a pretty good chance that this is the first time you’ve heard about them. They’re so rare that you will likely not find them in your local supermarket. But lucky for you and happy for us, we’re here to offer this amazing locally-grown nut to you.

When you bite into a Certified Organic Red Walnut, you’ll notice that it’s creamy, rich and milder-tasting than its delicious and wonderful Walnut cousins. Their ruby-red skin makes them a hit on a charcuterie board, added to a green salad or proudly served as a healthy nosh at your next dinner party. Yes, you could use their novel appearance as a conversation piece and we would be proud if you do! Thinking of enlightening your guests with the story of this nut while giving them super-powered nutrition. It’s a win for you, we’d say!
While you’re joining us in feeling the excitement, we’re going to do something that may make you rub your eyes in disbelief. Yes, you know that a deal is coming, but it’s a super big deal: From now through the end of April we’re offering our Certified Organic Red Walnuts to you for an amazing 30 percent off, or just $15.04 per precious pound. We don’t want you to panic, but this is such a great deal on such a rare and real food that we think you’ll want to stock up. They’re pretty, they’re super good for you and they’re shelled and ready to go!
If you’ve regained consciousness and are up for more savings (like, who can resist healthy savings, right?), we’d like to give you a nutrition boost and some relief for your wallet by offering 10 percent off Bella Viva Orchards’ Certified Dried Organic Mango Strips, Certified Organic Dried Blueberries (unsweetened), Certified Organic Turkish Apricots, Certified Organic Dried Orange Slices, Certified Organic Dried Papaya and Certified Organic Roasted Salted Pistachios.
Happy April, friends. We invite you to enjoy these exciting fruits and nuts and take a few moments to think about the things in your own life that bring wonderment, even an unusual, rare and beautiful Certified Red Walnut!
