PFG 2023: UMHDI Hazelnut ‘Go First Farm’ Collaboration and Progress in 2023, Looking Ahead
Kurt Kimber, Kimber Contours
Lois Braun, Andrew Leach, and Colin Cureton, UMN Forever Green
The Upper Midwest Hazelnut Development Initiative (UMHDI) is moving into the next phase of its efforts to develop hazelnuts for the Upper Midwest. In 2023, UMHDI partners in Minnesota developed a systematic outreach process to identify ‘Go First Farm’ (GFF) partners for deployment of its 1st-generation selections, and established Minnesota’s first GFF Farm, and Wisconsin UMHDI partners established their fourth. Grower Kurt Kimber will present his experience establishing the first phase of a five-acre hazelnut planting on his diversified organic farm, which is being established into an older stand of Kernza perennial grain and alley-cropped for several years. University of Minnesota Forever Green Initiative team members co-present their experience working with Kurt on this project as well as 2024 GFF recruitment priorities. Lastly, presenters touch on entrepreneurial pathways being explored for stacked enterprises that will enable and accelerate the development of the regional hazelnut industry.

    I’m in Tennessee and while I knew I had a nice persimmon tree on my place, to my delight late last year I discovered a BUNCH of younger persimmon trees with lots and lots of fruit. I also have the thorny locusts, and black walnuts are a nuisance, there are so many of those here and wild elderberry’s everywhere on my place. I’m so excited about the sassafras and sumac (not poisonous). It has been a joy to discover all the wonders on my “wild” farm.

    I'd like to grow some here in SC, Zone 8b. As an historian of the traditional trades, I'd like to see bringing back a bit of the hazel coppicing you see so prevalent in Europe. They use the stems for all manner of things around the homestead, so even if the nut size isn't spectacular, there's much that can be done with the wood. If, that is, the American Hazelnut has the same characteristics as their British cousins.

    Fake ministers all know Malachi 3:8 is telling THEM to return the money and Matthew 19:12 says God prefers same-sex marriage. Anyone that doesn't stop supporting fakes that take money for the gospel and accept the fact God prefers same-sex marriage will soon be taken with the wicked. I am Elijah, the forerunner to the return of Jesus. JESUS was TRANSGENDER, a female man returning as a female woman in a lesbian relationship with a male woman.

    I wish I had access to this in Canada. I have a forest lot, and I would be able to transform it into a great agriforest. However, it costs a lot of money, and I've been doing it rather slowly on my own. Grants like this would be a godsend. Great work! Keep it up, I hope our government north of your border will pay attention.
