Long before European settlers arrived, indigenous peoples of the eastern woodlands used the hulls, bark, and leaves of Juglans nigra for a wide range of traditional purposes — from supporting digestive health to topical skin applications. The hull — the thick green outer casing that surrounds the walnut shell — is the most potent part of the tree, rich in juglone, tannins, and iodine. It is one of those herbs that serious herbalists keep in their apothecary not for everyday use, but for when it is specifically called for. Potent, purposeful, and deeply rooted in North American herbal tradition.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur Black Walnut Hull is cut and sifted — \u003cem\u003eJuglans nigra\u003c\/em\u003e, carefully dried and processed to preserve its juglone content and characteristic dark color.
