Pine nuts are edible seeds from pine trees. In Europe pine nuts are harvested from the Stone Pine or the Swiss Pine. In Asia pine nuts are harvested from the Korean Pine in northeastern Asia and are harvested from the Chilgoza Pine in the western Himalaya.

In North America pine nuts are harvested from the Colorado Pinyon, Single-leaf Pinyon, the Mexican Pinyon, the Gray Pine, the Torrey Pine, the Sugar Pine, and the Parry Pinyon. In the United States, pine nuts are mainly harvested by Native Americans. The tribes that harvest pine nuts include the Shoshone, Paiute, Hopi, and Washoe tribes.
