Pecan Store September 14th, 2009

Join us on Saturday, December 5, 2009, as we kick off the inaugural Sahuarita Pecan Festival at our farm in southern Arizona.

As I’ve mentioned before, there will be plenty of fun for everyone including live music and entertainment, fantastic food and pecan-related dishes, and so much more!

The Sahuarita Pecan Festival already has several sponsors lined up, including Fertizona, San Simone, LaPosada and Splendido. There are still plenty of opportunities left, but they’re going quick!

There are so many benefits of becoming a sponsor at the first ever Sahuarita Pecan Festival:

• Increased exposure in the community
• Opportunities to connect with up to 10,000 potential customers
• Name and logo recognition in Festival materials
• Goodwill from being affiliated with a fun, family-oriented event
• An opportunity to target the greater Tucson community

View a list of available sponsorship opportunities and sign up today. See you at the Festival!

Pecan Store January 21st, 2009

What do you get when you mix a great cause and some delicious ice cream? Yes Pecan!

“Yes Pecan!” is the name of the latest Ben & Jerry’s concoction that combines “Amber Waves of Buttery Ice Cream With Roasted Non-Partisan Pecans.”

I haven’t actually been able to try this flavor yet, so I can’t comment on the taste, but when you purchase “Yes Pecan!” from local Ben & Jerry’s scoop shops during the month of January, all proceeds will be donated to the Common Cause Educational Fund.

The Common Cause Educational Fund is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization that is committed to honest and accountable government as well as encouraging national participation in democracy. The Education Fund conducts research, education and outreach activities.

And, for every person who joins Common Cause or donates $1 to the Education Fund, Ben & Jerry’s will also donate $1.

Good ice cream for a good cause.

More information can be found on the Ben & Jerry website.
