Why Millican Pecans Are Different
Pecans aren't all the same. Where the pecans are grown, how they're harvested, how they're handled, and how long they sit before you eat them make a bigger difference than most people realize. When you buy a bag of pecans at the grocery store, it's hard to know where those pecans came from. With Millican Pecan, we can tell you: our pecans come from our own orchard in San Saba, Texas, "The Pecan Capital of the World."
The pecans we grow are the pecans we sell
Our family has been growing pecans in San Saba, Texas, since 1888. Our Mother Orchard is the oldest commercial pecan orchard in the world, and we still farm it today.
We grow our own pecans. We harvest them. We shell them in our own pecan shelling plant, process and package them in our own kitchen, and ship fresh Texas pecans directly to you. There aren't a bunch of steps between our pecan orchard and your kitchen.
We're pecan farmers, not a label on a bag
We see the pecan trees through the seasons, watch the crop develop, and deal with the weather, the good years and the hard ones. When we send you a bag of pecans, we know where every pecan came from because we watched it grow. Then we put our family name on the package.
Fresh pecans taste the way pecans should
Pecans are naturally high in oil, and that's what makes a fresh pecan so buttery. Those same oils mean freshness matters. We don't let our pecans sit in a warehouse for months working through a distribution chain. We harvest our pecans, shell them, protect their freshness, and get them on their way to you. Open a bag of truly fresh pecans and you taste the difference in the first handful.
Our kitchen only handles pecans
Our commercial kitchen is dedicated to pecans. We don't process peanuts, walnuts, almonds, or any other nuts there. Only pecans. For families who pay close attention to where their food is made and what else is made alongside it, that's an important difference.
Made by hand, not merely assembled
Most companies found a faster way to make it. We kept making ours by hand. Our pecan log rolls are rolled by hand in our own orchard kitchen, the caramel in our Caramillicans is cooked there in small batches, and every treat starts with pecans from our own trees. When something is going on your family's table, or being sent to someone who matters, that shows.
A real family, not a brand story
Five generations. One obsession. 1888 is not a date under our logo, it is when our family started growing pecans in San Saba, and the stories are real: pecans from our Mother Orchard were sold to Queen Victoria and Alfred, Lord Tennyson in the late 1800s, and Grape-Nuts cereal was named after a cluster of Mother Orchard pecans shown at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair.
