Hazelnut Growers of Oregon (HGO) is a farmer-owned cooperative and processing facility based in Donald, Oregon, focusing on hazelnut production and value-added processing. The company partners with hundreds of family farms to supply an array of hazelnut formats, including in-shell, natural, and roasted kernels, which are processed into products such as diced, sliced, seasoned, butter or paste, and nut-flour meal for use by food manufacturers, industry chefs, and other sectors in dairy, snack, candy, and baking. HGO offers a range of packaging options to serve global retail, foodservice, and industrial ingredients markets, and emphasizes creating value-added products that highlight Oregon’s hazelnut agricultural heritage, notably through its Oregon Orchard retail brand. The organization operates a sizable processing facility in Donald and has evolved through expansions and a merger with Wilco to support its growing production and product lines, with recent activity including the launch of Oregon Orchard seasoned snack products.
