Mark offers consulting services for large production growers interested in starting Macadamia planting, or those in need of technical information on establishment or maintenance of orchards and processing the nuts.

You may also purchase large quantities of nuts for your own reselling needs.

Or let Mark process your Macadamia Nuts.

Cooper's nut house has a complete Macadamia processing plant on his farm and offers these services to growers in California who may have one tree or many. If you need processing and proper handling of your tree's nuts call Tom.

W e can husk, dry, crack, sort, package and create personalized labels for your nuts. Our prices: For the 2008 year are;

          $5.00 MINIMUM

  • Sort, @ $0.65 per pound
  • Package @ S0.25 per pound
  • Labeling add $0.20 cents per pound
  • Computer generated lable setup fee $30.00

These prices are calculated on the pounds of nuts delivered to MnM's Nut House for processing.
In the processing of Macadamia nuts there is a considerable weight reduction through all the successive steps. The following example will make you aware of this reduction.
100 pounds of Macadamia nuts including the green husks after husking will weigh....50 pounds.
This 50 pounds then dried will weigh ... 40 pounds.
This 40 pounds of dried nuts cracked and then sorted will possibly weigh 14 pounds.
This is assuming a 35% recovery rate. Various varieties grown in this region can have a recovery rate of as little as 10% to as much as 45%, but overall averages are in the 20% to 30%. Add to this customer handling problems and poor collection practices and you have much less recovery. Please talk with Mark Marchese and he will give you information sheets that will help you in the harvesting and handling, of your Macadamia nuts before processing. MnM's NutHouse is here to help you.
