Walnuts in the High Atlas mountains

We've written about walnuts before in a previous blog. Every year is different and unfortunately for this year, it seems the walnut harvest was not hectic - certainly in the Western part of the Moroccan High Atlas mountains.
Strong winds and frost damage last April when the blooms were flowering, caused enough damage to reduce the harvest this year to about half of last years crop - which will mean (like most other foodstuffs) a price increase this year for Moroccan walnuts.....
