Green Valley Pecans

Down in Green Valley, Arizona the largest pecan grove spreads out along a 9 mile by 1 mile stretch of land. The trees are beautiful and pretty big. I never thought much about pecan trees before I saw the trees when we were driving on the road next to the farm. Most of the leaves were golden yellow. The colors of the leaves reminded me of the trees in the mid-west in the fall. Nature is so amazing.

My brother-in-law told me a little bit about the farm. Today we went to their store so I could buy pecans to bring home with me. Fresh pecans from the farm sounded like a good thing. They had chocolate covered pecans, turtles (which they called Camel Backs), honey roasted pecans, toffee and pralines with pecans, and plain pecans. I was surprised they didn’t have pecan pie. It was fun to buy gifts there.

It’s always nice when I can get something that’s locally grown when I go somewhere. The energy brings me back to basics and that simplicity is something I really like to enjoy. I love the luxury of modern living I have at home. The convenience of my lifestyle is something I’m very grateful for. When I mix that with the flavors of other places I get a warm feeling inside that makes me smile. I love to smile.

Blessings!
