Oconee variety pecans originate from the Oconee tree. While these trees produce crops relatively early in their lifespan, its nuts are harvested from the middle to almost the end of October. Oconee pecans are large and of high quality. Desirable pecans live up to their name. These trees produce early in the season. The Desirable type is an oily variety of pecan, and is a favorite of tourists in Georgia. Sumner pecan trees are quite robust and resilient. Like the desirable sort, these trees also flourish early in the season, and produce wholesome nuts. Sumner trees do very well in southern states like Georgia, Florida, and Alabama. The Stuart pecan tree yields enormous amounts of nuts, and can be found all throughout the U.S.
At Southern Nuts, our grading and packing equipment is state of the art. As a result, careful production planning allows us to grow and distribute the best pecans available.
Georgia is the number one pecan producing state in the country. Consequently, Southern Nuts and the numerous other producers in GA have a huge positive economic impact on our state.
