ABOUT US

Peanut picking is a busy time in Bertie County. Each fall, farmers race to ensure the year's harvest is coaxed from the sandy soils at the peak of the peanuts' naturally fresh flavor.

During this season, Papa Jack would treat local farmers (and a few hungry grandchildren) to a snack dug from the peanut fields. Frying freshly dug peanuts in the old popcorn popper became a beloved tradition, nearly as anticipated as the harvest itself!
