Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(How are peanuts grown and harvested?),it will help you,my kids.

Peanuts are legumes, not nuts. The peanut plant is unusual because it flowers above ground but the peanut grows below ground. Planted in the early spring, the peanut grows best in calcium rich sandy soil. For a good crop, 120 to 140 frost free days are required. Farmers harvest the peanuts in the fall. The peanuts are pulled from the ground by special machinery and turned over to dry in the fields for several days. The combine machines then separate the peanuts from the vines and blow the tender moist peanuts into special hoppers. They are dumped into a drying wagon and cured by forcing warm air through the wagons. Afterwards, the peanuts are taken to buying stations where they are inspected and graded for sale.

they are grown on a nut tree and then picked off buy farmers

Yes, that is a good April fool prank. Take a friend to a peanut grove and ask them to pick a peanut from the peanut tree. You will get some odd reactions. I am a victim thanks to my cousin. I was startled when he pulled peanuts out of the ground.
