I think cashews don't grow in a shell. But more on the outside of of a fruit.

Wow that site tells me far more than I ever wanted to know about cashews, to answer SF Miami's question:

The Raw Cashew nut is gray in color with a 3mm thick shell, hard on the outside and with a honeycomb structure containing a dark reddish brown oil called Cashew Nut Shell Liquid (CNSL). Inside this shell is the edible kernel, covered by a light brown skin. The cashew is therefore very well protected and if dried well, can be stored for many months. It is not possible to open the shell while snacking and the skin is also bitter. That's why you never see cashews in-shell and only rarely with skin in consumer packets.
