harvest Bay nuts for $20-30/hr

Magnolia near Grand, Oakland CA

Description

Get paid to rummage around the forest while supporting a creative new business! I'm buying the fallen fruits from the Bay Laurel tree (Umbellularia californica). The nuts, when roasted, taste like a cross between coffee and chocolate. $1/lb. I will come pick up loads of 60# or more, or any size load can be dropped off in North or West Oakland. Prefer wet, not dry, fruits, and they will garner you a better rate for your time. Some scouting and minimal technique required. All training is free and done via phone, photo, and video, and takes about 30-60 minutes. I will tell you the best places to find nuts and the fastest ways to harvest. Harvesting in good areas, of which there are many, generally yields between 20-30 pounds per hour. **No purchases without training/pre-arrangement
