Upper Midwest Hazelnut Development Initiative (UMHDI)

2025 Upper Midwest Hazelnut Growers Conference March 7-8 - Click HERE.
Welcome!  Hazelnuts are an emerging new crop for the Upper Midwest with significant economic and environmental benefits.  Through research, industry development, and outreach education we are working to realize the vision of our early-adopter growers: to create a sustainable hazelnut industry modeled after the oak savanna and based on our native American hazelnut.
