About Northridge Chestnuts

Northridge Chestnuts is a delicious new endeavor from the Northridge Blueberries farm. We invite you out for a day of family fun and gather-your-own chestnuts right on the shore of beautiful Lake Erie.

Chestnuts in hand

Local and Delicious: Whether you'd like to stop by to pick up a healthy snack on your way home from work, or you'd like to make a day of chestnut gathering, picnicking on the beach, and swimming in the refreshing lake, Northridge Chestnuts is your one-stop shop for all of your chestnut gathering needs.

Pricing:

Gather-your-own chestnuts $4.70 / lb
Pre-gathered chestnuts $6.50 / lb

Payment: Please bring cash or check. We are also happy to accept WIC or Senior Farmers' Market Nutrition Program benefits through your Homegrown Benefits app or card.

What to Wear: We recommend close-toed shoes and gloves in the orchard. The husks around the chestnuts are prickly — nature's little armor!

Families & Kids: The farm is fenced and the orchard is at the back, so little ones can explore freely without wandering too far. A great outing for all ages.
