Sunflower Trail Mix

 

Sunflower Trail Mix 







  • 1 ½ pounds (~5 cups) roasted, lightly-salted nuts (walnuts, almonds, cashews)
  • 1 pound (~3 cups) dried fruit (cherries, raisins, cranberries)
  • ½ pound (~1 ½ cups) seeds (pumpkin, sunflower)

INSTRUCTIONS
 

  • Place all ingredients in a large bag or container and shake to mix. Enjoy!


When and How do you harvest Sunflower seeds? 

Once your sunflowers have died back completely and the backs of the blooms are brown, it's time to harvest. You'll also notice the seeds are plump and somewhat loose. Cut the stalk with sharp scissors or pruners, about one foot down from the flower head, and place in a container that can catch any loose seeds
