Glory to the Peanut

the original superfood

Let’s Get Nuts

  • Since our founding, we have stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the farmers and shellers of American peanut growing communities. Today, peanut farming directly supports more than 7,000 family farms across the U.S.

From the Ground Up

Easy on the Water Growing one ounce of peanuts takes 3.2 gallons of water, but you’d need nine times that amount for an ounce of almonds*.
Good for the Ground Peanut plants are less reliant on synthetic fertilizers, since they’re able to produce their own nitrogen.**
Able to Pay It Forward Vine-like plant byproducts are often used by farmers as fertilizer for the next set of crops.**
Delicious Protein Contain a whopping 7 grams of protein per ounce.***
