buchanan hollow nut company

If you like nuts and nut brittle, do not pass this place up! You will be very glad you stopped! Their products are tasty and wholesome. They sell arts and crafts (of course I bought!) and plenty of down home food items.

I was so curious about the nut farms, so my husband reluctantly stopped here to make me happy. We were able to sample many of the products--dried fruit and nuts. Everything was so delicious that we bought quite a bit. The owner, Sharleen, offered to give us a tour. She was a hoot! She told the most interesting stories, even our 16 year old son paid attention. I'm a homeschooler, and I appreciate that we learned a lot too, including the politics of water in this area. Sharleen also paints the most beautiful pictures. What a lady! We adored her. My husband said it was the best thing we did on our vacation.

Sharleen was such a wonderful tour guide and treated us like family. It is a family owned organic nut farm and was a treat for us so see. She gave us a history of the farm and taught us how they grow and process the nuts. My children of 11, 14, and 16 seemed very interested in what she had to say and in trying the nuts. She is also an amazing artist with a wonderful selection of watercolors for sale.
