I'm thinking of planting more nut bearing plants in my yard. Possibly for myself, but mostly for wildlife. Corylus americana (American Hazelnut) is native and easy to grow, I understand.

avoid black walnut. not as terrible as salting the earth, but not great.
Too late, we already have some of those. They were there when we bought the house.

C. americana is resistant to juglone, btw.

I only just found out black cherries are native to North America.
A Prunus species, also resistant to black walnut.

List from a local nursery on resistant plants:
