To preserve the restorative oils of our nuts, we practice an "old fashion" method of immediate hand harvest from the ground and an old-school way of "putting up the nuts" to dry by wood fire. These practices have been passed down four generations.
NO CHEMICALS, NO SPRAYS, ALL-NATURAL, LEGACY PROCESS OF WORKING WITH HEALING NATURE, TIME & THE SACRED ELEMENTS FOR YOUR GOOD HEALTH.
AND THEY TASTE "OMGood" GOOD!
Our process happens here at Amabel Heer ("here") Farms, a 30ish-acre, 4th-generation family-operated nut, hay, and specialty small-batch restorative foods farm planted in the Willamette Valley of Oregon where we savor the big skies, fertile and sacred soil, and the healing that lives and grows here for us all.
And as a family, we know the healing benefits of these nuts and this land, first hand...
Hi, I'm Annie and I'm the mommaship around "heer" and in the spring of 2019, just stepping into our 50s, having uprooted our lives to start our farm lifestyle with our then 2-year-old in-tow, a "strange" diagnosis of Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease, moreover NASH, was handed to my husband Steve (3rd generation Heer) after routine blood work.
We were told to "get yourselves educated on cirrhosis of the liver". That "this is going to be a life-changer". That "you may not be able to farm".
Steve had always been "healthy, happy, and fit". He comes from "good stock". Sure, he'd eat whatever he wanted, he had "the metabolism of a 20-year-old" until this.
Out of the blue doesn't even begin to cover it. The fear, confusion, worry. And then...
One night, late, standing side-by-side in the hallway feeling all the feelings of defeat, after many doctor appointments including a long-awaited visit with a nutrition "specialist" who advised that "there are no real diet guidelines for repairing the liver, you're just going to have to figure it out for yourself", I heard:
"This is all medicine. This is your farm's business plan. This is how you'll help the world feel better. The healing is here."
I knew the guidance, (though I did drop my toothbrush to the floor mid-brush). I knew our bodies to be sacred landscapes, that this land was restorative... that we are deeply connected to nature, naturally... so we rejected the scripted prognosis, and got to work.
We turned to our instincts and our land. We educated ourselves, finding one of the superheroes in our restorative gut solution: Walnuts.
Right in our backyard. Right here on the farm.
We had healing growing right outside our door - waiting to help Steve - with THE specific job of combating the fastest-growing diagnosis in the US outpacing heart disease and diabetes, NASH.
And those healing walnuts did just that, and still do (along with other key restorative and high-vibe foods that are a part of our restorative farming plan).
Through radical shifts and relentless embracing new, immediate, specific dietary habits (and positive subconcious reprogramming techniques to support the self-healing process), Steve's liver repaired — in less than 1 year.
Steve was healing his body. And continues to. We all do.
Eating our walnuts, part of the select restorative gut food line-up we consume on the regular now, supported Steve's liver (brain and spirit) in healing and my "adventure" through menopausal changes.
They helped build back his healthy gut biome and mine critical to decreasing inflammation and stress in our bodies.
We went back to basics. We continue to connect the dots back to the Source.
Those specialists, well, they were shocked when lab results came back... with Steve's numbers "well within the normal range".
And Heer we are now...
We - Steve, Ambrose, and I - would like to share some magical walnuts with you.

* Why do I care that walnuts are a polyphenol? Polyphenols are a bioactive compound in nature known for antiviral activity and pleiotropic effects — currently studied as prevention treatment for viral infectivity because they are believed to dampen the risk of a virus-induced inflammation in the body*. Walnuts are one of the highest nuts containing polyphenols. Please consult with your healthcare provider for more information.

What's pleiotropic? Loosely, it references a combo-platter of simultaneous effects. For instance, your body benefits from walnuts because they contain high amounts of omega3s that are reported to support heart health, lower blood pressure, help brain function, and decrease inflammation. Walnuts are the only nut that contains the high o3's.

“The nuts are amazing - THANK YOU, THANK YOU so much!!!!!!!!!!”—J.F.
Supplies are limited. After harvest and our drying ritual, we work off a waitlist every year for these walnuts.
Waitlist? Yep. Words out!...it's in how we care for and respect the tree, process the high-vibe specialty small-batch yield, and take good care of this
4th generation family farm.
(And it's a nod to how delicious our walnuts are!)
