The Bertie County Difference

We're asked a lot about what makes our peanuts so darn good. Aside from our years in the business (we've been at this since 1919), and our hours of nurturing peanut plants in the field, we need to give a lot of credit to mother nature.
Windsor is located in Bertie County, NC, and we're surrounded by beautiful waterways. These waterways create a perfect rich fertile, sandy soil just right for growing some of the best peanuts in the country — that's why we like to say that "our secret's in the soil".

Over A Hundred Years in the Peanut Business

For over a hundred years our farm supply business, Powell & Stokes, sure has seen a lot of changes. Keeping in tradition of a family business, the reins have been handed down a time or two. From Jack, Sr. and Lu Whit to Jack, Jr. and Bill Powell and most recently, to Jon and Jeff, we think that those who started it all, Luther Powell "Mr. Luther" and Jonathan Stokes "Uncle John", would be proud. Who would have thought back when Jack Powell, Sr., (or "Papa Jack" as everyone called him), started cooking his now famous blister peanuts in his popcorn popper, that we'd start a peanut company celebrating our proud heritage and love for Bertie County.

A Taste of Tradition

Now in our fourth generation, farming looks a bit different than the old days and some of the old traditions have been replaced with a faster paced way of life. But we still love it when our farmer friends and neighbors come, sit and talk, while munching our peanut snacks and discussing the weather and crops. Our small batch peanut snacks and treats have come a long way and some may say we’ve gone a bit nuts! We now ship all over the world sharing our favorite tastes from down home. We believe in peanuts and are proud of our products. We hope you enjoy them as much as we do!
