Humans have been consuming Hazelnuts for about 9000 years. Turkey is the largest producer of hazelnuts in the world with approximately 75% of worldwide production. Hazelnuts have a wide variety of uses which include confectionery, baked goods, Hazelnut Spread/Butter and even flavouring your coffee. The hazelnut is unique in that it blooms and pollinates in the middle of winter. Wind carries the pollen from yellow catkins to a tiny red flower where it stays dormant until June, when the nut begins to form and then fall out of the husk when ripe. In Ancient Rome, it was customary to offer a hazelnut plant, in the belief that it brought happiness.
