Planting organic hazelnut stock

Last updated on February 6, 2025

Find information about planting stock in an organic hazelnut orchard. 

You must plant organic growing stock if it is available. If it is not available, you can plant non-organic planting stock but you must provide proof of attempting to attain organic planting to your certifier.

Evidence is often in the form of:

  • Email correspondence, or
  • Records of phone calls.

Check with your certifier about what type of evidence they require.
