About ApricotKing
Since 1946, the Gonzales family has grown the rare and fabulous California Blenheim apricots. Grown on our Hollister ranch, we continue to be the farmer, pruner, dryer, packer, and seller of the vanishing Blenheim apricot. We produce the best tasting apricots in the world all "Home Grown in the Flavor Zone"!
In addition to our incredible dried apricots, be sure to discover our variety of nuts (walnuts, pistachios, almonds) and other dried fruits (peaches, pears, prunes, and more). For those who believe less is more, we have dark and delicious unsulfured dried apricots. And don't forget our sweet and tart selection of apricot jams and syrups as well as our decadent chocolate covered fruits and nuts. Simply delicious! Everything here on the ranch is organically grown.
Enjoy!
WALNUTS 2025 crop
Shaken off the trees in November, Cracked in December..........
They are truly the best walnuts ever.
(Everyone says they'll never eat the store bought ones again)
They are light halves & pieces, Chandler variety, clean, blond-colored, and
have a wonderful "no-bite" buttery flavor. 12 oz 1.75 lbs
The secret to good walnuts is to keep them refrigerated.
They will hold in the refrigerator (never the freezer) for a year.
New studies show people who eat nuts every day live longer, are healthier, and slimmer than those who don't eat nuts much or at all.
With that said, here's a little more help to really enjoy these heart-healthy goodies as we have the best premium walnuts around!!
**Our walnuts were certified organic until 2005...we've not changed our farming practices, just quit the certifying and paperwork fees that go with organic walnuts.

Best Walnuts Around!
Posted by Unknown on Jul 30th 2025
They are delicious, fresh and addicting!

Best walnuts available ANYWHERE !!!
Posted by Miriam Stansfield on Jul 2nd 2025
Unless you have your own walnut tree you won’t be able to find better walnuts no matter where you look! Walnuts are a bit tempermental, when they start to age they go pretty fast and there is nothing worse than rancid walnuts! Patty knows exactly how to care for her products so take her advice on storing them. Then ENJOY!!

Thought I didn't like walnuts!!
Posted by Sandra on Jun 22nd 2025
On the last order I added a bag of walnuts, my husband likes them sometimes added to his breakfast plate or as a healthy snack. I don't really care for walnuts so I thought to order a small bag for him. I made an error and ticked the wrong size bag box. When the package arrived with our fav ApricotKing goodies I was surprised with the large bag, my error so no problem. Well I had some of the 'cherries' from the 'snack pack' and as an treasured uncle used to do was to put them on a walnut half, like sweet delicious candy, about the only time I would eat walnuts. Well these are so fresh and tasty I probably ate more of them than my husband..so with the 'next' (our latest order) I ticked the large bag!!! Guessing it's the freshness as they are crunchy and don't leave an 'aftertaste' (maybe the reason I 'used to' not like walnuts! Now they will be a regular choice for future orders to 'share' with my husband!!!

Oh gooood!

Had not planned on ordering the large bag of walnuts, thought I ticked the 14oz. My husband likes the walnuts so it would have been plenty for him, but I didn't tick the 'right' box and when I saw the large bag thought, oops. But from one that doesn't like walnuts so much, ok good in cookies or baklava! But I don't like the aftertastes and that odd 'bite' they leave when you eat some! Well....ran through that bag like the wind! I probably never had 'fresh' walnuts like this! I think I have eaten most of the bag!!! And then the cherries in the snack pack with the walnuts! Whole new snacking fun here! Time to reorder NOW!

Really fresh and tasty.
Posted by Sandra on May 11th 2025
Really good and they don't leave that odd feeling in your mouth and maybe why I don't usually eat them. They are a fav of my husbands and decided to order some for him, thought I order the smaller packet because I don't eat them. Opened the order and there was this large size of walnuts, oops. So I filled a bowl for the counter top and the rest in the fridge. Tried one...then two..then..I need to order another large bag!!! Very fresh and not bits but the whole walnut (in two pieces as usual), very tasty. I have some every day, great snack with a bit of dried fruit, well maybe a 'large bit of dried fruit'. Highly recommend and noted that after having a 'handful' there is not that odd aftertaste and like 'sore mouth' after eathing them in the past..maybe why I didn't like walnuts!!! Highly recommend them, would be great for better tasing baked goodies!!

Never tasted walnuts that are as good. I can only think that it is because they are fresh!
Would definitely order again -
