A Nut Buck is exactly what it sounds like – a FREE buck you can put toward your any of your IN-STORE purchases totaling $20.00 or more.

When checking out, present your Nut Buck to the clerk by printing it out from this link or showing it from your mobile device, and $1 will be subtracted from your purchase total.

Throughout our short three-month season, we do our best to constantly change and renew the many non-nut goodies in our store. The ever-changing nature of the inventory would make it impossible to manage the online sales of such product. So make a point to visit us, you never know what nutty deal we may have flying off the shelves!

The quick answer… No. We do not classify or label any of our nuts as being gluten-free because they are packaged in a facility where they may come into contact with wheat or other gluten containing items.

The cashew tree is native to northeastern Brazil. In the mid-to-late 1500s, Portuguese traders and explorers introduced the cashew tree to India and to the east coast of Africa in an area that is now Mozambique. When We Are Nuts began its operation in 1988, we purchased our Cashews primarily from India and Africa. Now, twenty-six years later, Viet Nam has become a major world player in the Cashew market. Their quality has been exceptional for the past two years and has become the main source for We Are Nuts. We buy the very best Pecans direct form several growers in Georgia and also Walnuts and Almonds direct from growers in California.

I could tell you, but I’d have to kill you (just kidding!!!). You must first recognize that roasting nuts is an art. I learned the trade from a gentlemen, since retired, who was a roaster at the Fisher Nut plant in St. Paul. He was very fussy and wouldn’t even let me touch the stirring paddle for three years. Now, being the old pro that I am, I’m passing the technique to my sons (none of who, have yet to touch the paddle).

Absolutely! Incorporating raw or natural nuts into a well balanced diet is a great way to snack healthy without having to sacrifice taste. Nuts are high in protein, so a handful mid morning or mid afternoon can provide the energy needed to get through the day.

Just remember in this season of giving, celebration, family & friends, your big heart may be in for a work out, so keep it healthy!
