Abstract:
European colonists who settled on North Carolina's Coastal Plain quickly learned to use the wild vegetables, berries, fruits, and nuts they found growing there. Nuts provided food for their tables and for their hogs. The tradition of nutting continues to this day. Casada discusses the practice and where to find nuts, including black walnut, hazelnut, butternuts, and beechnuts.

Abstract:
The Dunstan chestnut is a cross between an American chestnut and a blight-resistant Chinese chestnut. The nuts have a sweet taste, especially when roasted over a charcoal fire. A small number of orchardists in the state are trying to interest people in the nuts which are high in carbohydrates and much lower in oil than many other nuts.
