(Juglans cinerea) Deciduous. Zones 3 - 7.

The Butternut tree is really something special! Not only is it a striking shade tree, it's also a wonderful food source. 

Similar in appearance to Black Walnut, Butternut is sometimes called White Walnut because of the light colour of the bark and wood. The wood is softer, and used to make paneling, cabinets, and furniture. 

Butternut is a fast growing tree and can reach up to 60 feet during its 80 year lifespan. It thrives in full sun and organically rich, deep, well-drained soil and doesn’t like competition. 

In Spring, female flowers give way to drooping clusters of edible oval nuts encased in hairy, sticky husks. The nuts mature in Fall, and while they can be small and difficult to crack, the treasure inside is incredible! Butternut tree nuts are tender, sweet, oily, with a rich, buttery flavour. 

The nuts are rich in proteins and omega-3 fatty acids, loaded with vitamins and minerals, and have antioxidant properties. They look like a walnut, but are sweeter and creamier! Crushed Butternuts are wonderful in breads and muffins, sprinkled over soup and salads, or used to add richness to sauces. 

Indigenous communities traditionally used Butternut nuts as a staple food and boiled the tree sap for syrup. This is still done today! The crushed nuts can be mashed into nut butter and the rich nut oil is used in cooking, leather making and polishing tools. The husks can be used to dye fabric and your hair!

** Please note that all members of the Juglans family (Butternuts, walnuts, heartnuts, etc.) create a protective substance in their roots called Juglone. This can kill certain other plant species within the root zone.

Not bad but read my full review if you are experimenting with different brands
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
So I am middle of the road on this product. First, I love the products from this brand and use some of their other products quite regularly. I was on a search for an alternative to the Crew Forming Cream (which I have used for maybe 20 years) and decided to purchase this product by Huron as well as the much cheaper medium hold styling cream by Cremo. All three are great products but you will need to decide for yourself how much hold you need as I have discovered that each are quite different and really shouldn't be compared to one another. I will say that if I had to put them all into two categories then Crew is heavy hold and Huron and Cremo is medium / light hold. I must admit that I was skeptical that the cheaper of the three, Cremo, would win me over but it has. For the record it has a very subtle scent (hardly noticable), just enough hold and does not leave you feeling like you have product in your hair. This is similar to Huron as well (although Huron is a very creamy in texture and you can tell its a higher quality product) but at the end of the day all that matters is great hold from a product that is affordable and does not leave a sticky texture in your hair. Cremo wins hands down. As for Crew, well it was a good ride but too expensive and way too heavy...time to move on.

So lightweight. Perfect for extra thick hair.
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
Its almost mousse like in how light weight it is and smells fantastic. I wanted something just above light weight hold and not weigh my thick hair down and this does a great job. A little pricey but SO much better than the usual store brands out there. And my wife is totally in love with how great it smells when I put it on, so bonus!

Smells good and doesn’t feel greasy
Scent: Hair Styler (1 Pack)
Product didn’t leave a greasy feeling to the hands or the hair. Kept hold all day for my hair style but I knew it was light hold going in. It has a great scent

Fantastic Face Wash for Men
Scent: Face Wash, Size: 5.1 Fl Oz (Pack of 2)
I love Huron's Face Wash. It is mild, moisturizing, and has just enough abrasive to exfoliate. Most Huron products are top-notch, and this is one of my favorites.
