Pecan Halves

From: $17.00

I’ll raise you a pecan! Before European settlement, pecans were often traded amongst NativeAmericans; they were an excellent food source for hunter gatherers as they are very high in energy. The name “pecan” is thought to have originated from the Algonquin Indian tribe word “pakan” which means a hard-shelled nut that requires a stone for cracking. Wild pecan trees grow up to 50 meters and can live and produce nuts for 150 years.
