Almonds have been cultivated and enjoyed for thousands of years. Our Nonpareils are grown in the Central Valley of northern California by the certfied organic farmers who are members of the Big Tree Organic Farms Co-op. Healthy and uniquely delicious, almonds add their own special touch to a wide variety of foods from Christmas cookies and candies to salads. Among our favorite is grilled lamb burgers with coarsely chopped garlic and almonds. Shelled and ready to eat. Makes a great gift!
