New Communities Pecan Pieces
Sold out
These raw, unsalted Georgia pecan pieces are ready to use for baking, topping off dishes, or simply snacking. They're brought to us by New Communities, a farm collective founded by Civil Rights activists that has dedicated itself to providing a safe haven for Black farmers and families. New Communities, one of the first community land trusts in the U.S., turned the loss of their original land due to discrimination into a story of resilience and opportunity. They farm in southwest Georgia, in one of the poorest parts of the state. Over the organization's 51 year history, these tenacious farmers have experienced more than their share of hardship and prejudice. Today, this African American-owned-and-run pecan orchard and center for social justice is building a future for black farmers in southern Georgia. To learn more, visit newcommunitiesinc.com
