Crooked Tree Hazelnuts is a small Tasmanian business owned and operated by David and Sally Brown.
Our property, Shipyards Orchard, overlooks Crooked Tree Point at Port Cygnet in Tasmania’s beautiful Huon region. Formerly an apple orchard, the trees were removed in 2001. In the winter of 2010, we planted just over a thousand one-year-old hazelnut trees.
Autumn is harvest time; the nuts fall to the ground and are collected over a period of several weeks through March and April. The nuts are then allowed to air-dry naturally for a further few weeks. We store the hazelnuts in the shell for maximum freshness, cracking and roasting small batches as required. Our roasted hazelnuts are available from the beginning of July each year until sold out, usually around 6 months later.
Crooked Tree Hazelnuts are available to buy directly from us from July onward, at the Cygnet Market, where we sell roasted hazelnuts packaged in 100g, 500g and 1kg sizes. Cygnet Market is held on the first and third Sundays of each month from 10am – 2pm in the Town Hall, Mary Street, Cygnet. If you live interstate or are unable to come to Cygnet Market, we are happy to post our hazelnuts Australia-wide. Please enquire via the contact form below for current availability, price and postage costs.
Please note: our hazelnuts have sold out for this season. We expect to have new season’s hazelnuts available in July 2024. Thank you to all out wonderful customers, we look forward to hearing from you again.
