Update on 10/22/25

For those of you close by, we will open our farm store on Sunday, October 26th from 11am to 3pm.  

Thank you all for you very flattering attention to our chestnuts!  We are still trying to catch up with both the online orders as well as our commitments to our local stores and to the Whole Foods Rocky Mountain region.

For that reason, we will not post inventory this week, but will post on November 3, at 4pm CST and expect to ship as late as November 10th.  We have learned our lesson not to attempt to take on too much too fast.  

We expect, but cannot guarantee that we will have some medium, medium large and maybe a few large.  It depends upon what we fill for our outstanding orders in the next week.  

If you are in the Lawrence or Kansas City area, please check The Merc, Checkers, Whole Foods and 888 International.  Other stores which carry our chestnuts include:

  • Europa Groceries--Des Moines, Iowa
  • Good Tern--Rockland, Maine
  • Belfast Coop--Belfast, Maine
  • Open Harvest Coop--Lincoln, Nebraska

We will see you on November 3rd!

 

  • We ship early in the week to ensure your chestnuts arrive before sitting at a post office over a weekend. Although shipping is usually reliable and prompt, shippers do not guarantee a delivery date. Please have a backup plan to pick up the package if you are going out of town! Remove the chestnuts from the box and refrigerate promptly upon receipt.

  • If you are a bulk chestnut buyer such as a grocer, natural food store or co-op, please email us (chestnutcharlie@gmail.com) and include your expected requirements. Together we will determine the optimal delivery dates, quantities and shipping options.

  • If you are not satisfied with your order, please contact us (email: chestnutcharlie@gmail.com) within 2 days of receipt.  Return the chestnuts to us for evaluation to Chestnut Charlie's, P.O. Box 1166, Lawrence, Kansas 66044.  (We cannot provide return postage).  Upon return, we will refund the cost of the chestnuts.

    Note: Always open your chestnut box and refrigerate the chestnuts promptly on arrival.  Organic chestnuts are not treated with any persistent preservative or other chemical.  It is natural for some mold to grow on the inedible shell--this seldom affects the edible part of the nut and not considered a defect.  You may wash chestnuts, including in a light vinegar solution, to suppress shell mold, dry, then refrigerate again in perforated or paper bags.
