That's a perfectly lovely tale of a family and their pursuit of Texas outdoor life! 🙃😉🥰

[@anabarrios3050]

Beautiful land, and beautiful story.

[@lindawhite8440]

I miss them so much, I am a pecan baker. I use nothing but pecans. I remember when I first pulled into Texas, aroundThanksgiving, I remember seeing the pecan trees. The U. S. And TEXAS should really appreciate your hard work. 💕🌟Thanks!

[@GeraldMorrison]

Love Gilbert Pecans and the family legacy. Thank you TCR for bringing this wonderful story to life! We really enjoy seeing Rhea and Kristi

[@jt.s.7418]

I was drooling 🤤when you said pecan brittle 😋😋. I make a damn fine peanut brittle and now I HAVE TO try making pecan brittle. What a beautiful family business built on unity, family, love and hard work.

[@harveymontgomery5087]

Another wonderful story about Texas country people. That is why I live in the great state of Texas.

[@rupert5390]

I wanna come live there. I’m not a liberal and love hard work.

[@bluegrassfan23]

Man, this is a grass-roots story. Bubba used to shake/pick our pecans every year. If we still owned our place, he would still be doing it. Bubba's a good guy!

[@SilverThunder710]

Grew up from Kindergarten to 2nd grade there. Santo's remote but it sure is beautiful. Plus those pecans, oh my goodness they're FULL of flavor!

[@joeestes8114]

I wish more people could understand what family heritage!

[@joeyfoundry7688]

Wow you could tell that came from her heart. What a sweet couple of ladies that man has. Reminded me a lot of the purple hull girls of Kilgore Tx.

Great story! Thanks!

[@jamieking79]

The good Lord bless and keep your family 🙏😄... My Gramma King worked the pecan factory in Hickman, KY in the 40’s and 50’s. There, in the groves, you find peace. My Papa King told us “ Commere and I’ll show ya where the money grows on trees!🤣!”

[@markreynolds3850]

[@WoefulPie]

Santo in the house! They make the best pecan coffee and peanut brittle on the planet.

[@toddtomaszewski6820]

They have a fine western bourbon pecan pie. Love that place on 20.

[@toddtomaszewski6820]

They make the best pecan pies. Best ever.

[@sandyjolley9810]

How do you keep the squirrels away I have 2 pecan trees and the squirrels get them all even if they're green!

Hello

[@onebullet6384]

I love pecans...

[@mjrussell414]

3 million pounds! Wow.

[@decnijfkris3706]

ever thought selling your pecans in nut mix bags? We have in Europe different kinds of nuts but I think we do not have pecans. To be investigated. And sugar coated works also good. For what I see it is all ready yet, just ship your baggies to Europe and tchitching brother

[@JoeHell67]

Buyz the Pecanz from the Texanz!

[@daleolson3506]

Your backround music is too loud. Junked another video

[@vinniethegooch7830]

[@chrisstaylor8377]

[@gsp49]
