Did you know more than half the businesses in the US are small businesses? We are proud to be one of the family-owned and operated small businesses that provides jobs and helps fuel our local community and economy. We want to take a moment and thank you for the support you have graciously shown us over the last 6 years. We wouldn’t be anything without you and we recognize the priceless nature of our partnership. With each decision you make to Support Small, you are playing a huge role in fueling both our passion of providing people with delicious farm fresh pecans and fueling local economy.
For us, “farm fresh” is so much more than a trendy phrase we use to describe ourselves. Farm fresh defines who we are. Being one of the only U.S. pecan producers to take pecans all the way from the tree to the table, we have an uncommonly close relationship with the claim “farm fresh”.
It’s a family-type atmosphere at Miller Pecan Company. Whether you work in the office, or on the production floor, or in the retail store, or you are just visiting, there is a special feeling of respect and inclusion among all people. It’s the kind of feeling that makes the long days worthwhile and the kind of feeling that makes going to work enjoyable. We work diligently to treat our fellow team members with respect, kindness and genuinely get to know who they are and not just what they do. So you either are family or it feels just like you are.
Flooding can be dangerous, costly and sometimes unavoidable to many, regardless of occupation or industry. Being pecan growers, we wish to point out some flooding challenges from our perspective, and how we are not immune to the violent threats of flooding and flash flooding.
When it comes to our business we always enjoy learning what our customers think about us. Similar to a thesaurus, a tool that groups words based on similarity of meaning, how our customers describe us helps define who we are. This is what you’ll get when you search Miller Pecan Company in the thesaurus.
We are always thankful for so much but it is around the holidays that we are most encouraged to truly reflect on our biggest blessings. Before we get too tied up in the hustle and bustle of the holidays we want to share with you the things we are most thankful for.
Kiddos are now 4 to 5 generations removed from the farm. This means basic knowledge of where food comes from can be very limited. The conversation around agriculture is fading and is it at the cost of the younger generation.
Regardless of the industry, every business owner has to have a why. That one thing that keeps them going, equally in the great times and the trying times. For our family-based business, our why is especially pronounced.
