Welcome
A
Reasonably Short Story . . .
The
Pecan House was first opened in the small South
Texas town of Cuero by J.F. Elder in the 1960's.
Lined with beautiful pecan trees, the Guadalupe
River winds its way along the eastern edge of
the city. Just about every city yard boasts at
least one tree. So, Mr. Elder spent the
busy pecan season, which runs from November to
mid-January, brokering pecans and cracking pecans
for the general public. Once the trees finished
producing and had been harvested, the doors were
closed until the next pecan season. When Wayne
Wolf took over the business forty years later,
he expanded to include selling fresh cracked pecan
halves and pieces in a simple gift box.
The
Better Part . . .
Erwin
and Annette Rath purchased the Cuero Pecan House
in June of 2003 and launched www.thecueropecanhouse.com.
Sharing a strong business sense and a talent for
gourmet cooking and adventure with Erwin, Annette
was beginning to hatch "nutty" ideas.
The
Even Better Part . . .
Mary
Beth Finney became a partner in October of 2006,
and the three began to expand the operation. Mary
Beth had her own "nutty" ideas, having
a talent for gourmet cooking herself and an adventurous
spirit. Candied pecans and specialty gourmet food
items were added to the product list. A new gift
box, dressier and more efficient for shipping
food products was designed.
The
Best Part . . .
The gift
box idea was a great success. Annette and Mary Beth,
by now known as the 2 Nuts, began making the seasoned
pecans using their own recipes which gave them quality
control of the product. Next, the 2 Nuts expanded
the business to include selling products wholesale
to retailers throughout the year and not just during
the pecan season.
And
Now
