Do you have a Trader Joe's? I think they are quite a bit cheaper at TJ's. Don't know anywhere online though.

I buy nuts from Trader Joes and Costco.
Online sources I'm not sure of..Probably best to do a search and find some that are "local" farmers for the area..I did a search last year for Pecans. I looked for places like Alabama, Georgia and such, because in my mind that's where "I" think they come from..
I can't remember my quest clearly..but I do know that I did NOT place any online orders..Just went to Costco instead.

The world is divided into those who have access to Trader Joes' (and coming soon, a 'Fresh and Easy') and those who don't

I usually go to Trader Joes for those...althugh I've found I can get better almonds and pistachios for less at well-stocked middle eastern store.

Try BulkFoods.

I've bought some of their stuff. The price gets better the more you buy. Postage and handling is one price and doesn't change no matter what you buy.

I like their steel-cut oats and their raisins are plump and moist. --Ilene

I order all my pecans from the Whaley Pecan Co. in Troy, Alabama. I've never had a bad experience and have ordered from them for well over 10 years.

I have my DMIL ship me pecans from her hometown, San Saba, TX. They have a big pecan processing (i.e. shelling) facility and the pecans are grown in the area. I haven't shipped from the farms before, but a quick Google gave me a couple that will ship. They are sold by the pound; I think it's good deal, though not super-cheap. The main thing is, these nuts are much, much sweeter than any I have ever purchased in a store, including Whole Foods and Trader Joe's. I highly recommend giving these a try.

Maybe nuts are cheaper here...but I looked at all those websites and thought the prices were much higher than what I can get at the grocery store locally.

I've got a correction on the Bulk Foods thing. Postage is free if your order totals $75 or more.

Thanks, everyone.
I live in a rural area and don't have access to those big name stores.
I'll check those links.
Again, thanks much.

Hands down, the best big, fat, fresh pecans I've ever had are from J.W. Renfroe Pecan Co. in Pensacola, FL. A friend who lived in Pensacola gifted me with 5 lbs. of their wonderful pecans! They grow most of what they sell. After the 2004 hurricanes, they got they pecans from Georgia and Texas. I did order then, and the Renfroe people were really, really, picky about what they sold from others! Great products, and less expensive than the grocery stores.

Their phone # is 1-800-874-1929 and I need to order some!

This is where I buy ALL my locally grown nuts right here in the San Juaquin Valley of California... it just doesn't get any fresher. And, try their raisins, nothing like you get out of the box from your grocery.
