Last year, I missed the opportunity to respond to the question: can I
grow truffles with walnuts?

The answer is no to my knowledge.

But if you have other nut trees, the answer becomes maybe.

Truffles are associated with a wide variety of tree species. Pine,
Douglas-fir, oak, hazel, honeysuckel and pecan host truffles.

My own experiments with Douglas-fir plantations in Clackamas County,
Oregon and Clark County, Washington show orchards or plantations can
be productive truffle-producing sites.
