About Product

Organic pine nuts have been around for centuries, with some of their earliest uses recorded as far back as ancient Egypt.

The pine nut has long been prized for its flavor and nutrient content, and it has been used in various cultures as a source of both nutrition and medicine.

In the United States, organic pine nuts have been used since the early 19th century, harvested from Native American pine forests.

From there, the production of organic pine nuts has grown steadily, with many countries now producing them for commercial and personal use.
