Georgia Pecan Season
Pecan trees are synonymous with Southern landscapes, not to mention famous Southern dishes like sweet potato casserole and pecan pie. But, like other tree nuts, pecans are not available year-round!
What time of year do we harvest pecans? Alongside other autumn treats, pecans begin to fall in mid-October with some varieties being harvested through early January.
Harvesting pecans is a fairly straightforward process; pecans naturally fall from the branches of the tree, and they can be knocked down or shaken from the tree. At the same time, there are several things we at Georgia Pecan Nursery recommend that you do to prepare for pecan season.
