We get ours on the side of the road on the way to Ka'u. There are orchards where the trees overhang a steep grade that leads to the road and the nuts fall onto the grade and roll down to the side of the road and in some areas it appears the rain had swept them all into huge piles. We've gone out there twice to harvest the free road nuts. Enough to nearly fill a garbage bag. Unfortunately we haven't been out there in over a year, so I can't remember the exact location. But when you see the mac nut trees, the steep grade, you'll know you're in the right area.
ETA: not to hijack this thread, but does anybody sell mac nut trees? And is there a variety (grafted or whatever) that doesn't take forever to nut?
