During the month of September, members of Great Bend’s Presbyterian Women will again be taking orders for this season’s fresh pecans from the Schermer Farm’s South Georgia pecan orchards. 

The 16 oz. packages of pecan halves and pieces are ideal for holiday baking and the several varieties of specialty pecans make delicious holiday gifts. The one-pound halves and pieces are priced at $13 this year. The specialty varieties include chocolate covered, dark chocolate covered, cinnamon coated, sugar glazed, and caramel clusters. All of these specialty packages are priced at $12. 

With the funds raised with the pecan sales, Presbyterian Women supports many local philanthropic organizations and services including the Food Bank, the Family Crisis Center, the Salvation Army Store, the Dream Center, Emergency Aid, Sunflower Diversified, and Barton County Juvenile Services as well as national Presbyterian Women’s mission projects.

The orders will be placed at the end of September and will arrive for delivery soon after the first of November in time for holiday baking. 

The pecans can be ordered from any Presbyterian Woman or by calling the church office at 792-2594.
