That was the beginning of his foray into collecting, breeding, and selling nut trees.At his farm and nursery in Niagara, Grimo grows a wide variety of cold-adapted nuts including heartnut, butternut, Persian walnut, black walnut, pine nut, hazelnut, chestnut, beech, hickory, and pecan. He also has crosses such as the “hican,” a hickory-pecan cross.
