Peanut Butter & Co. Farm
We are so passionate about peanut butter that we started our own 119 acre peanut farm in Northeast Arkansas. We grow high oleic peanuts, the same type of peanut that we use in our peanut powder, and are developing innovative ways to use the peanuts we grow in our products. We aren’t afraid to get our hands dirty and join the ranks of the hard working folks that proudly call themselves peanut farmers. All of our peanuts are grown in the USA and our product are made in the USA. Learn more about our farm and our commitment to simple, honest ingredients.
