Pecan Origins(With Shell)

The pecan is the only tree nut native to North America. Its buttery flavor and unmatched nutritional content have resulted in its growing worldwide popularity. Tracing its origin to the 16th century, the name “pecan” is derived from the Native American (Algonquin) word “pacane” (pacane) that described “nuts requiring a stone to crack.”

The natives of pre-colonial central and eastern regions of North America and the river valleys of Mexico used pecans as a major food source because they were readily available, easier to shell than other North American nut species, and they had excellent taste. They were even used as currency among Native American peoples for a time. Native tribes were thought to have used pecans to make a fermented drink called “Powcohicora,” from which the word “hickory” is derived. The tribes’ reliance on the nut for both nutrition and trade spurred their cultivation of the pecan tree.

A Growing Industry

In the 1700s and early 1800s American Colonists began using the popular nut in commerce, with great success. To meet demand, pecan orchards (trees planted by humans) became a companion to pecan groves (trees grown by natural forces).

Trees in groves and orchards produced nuts varying in size, shape, shell characteristics, flavor, and ripening dates Occasionally, a wild tree would yield unusually large, thin-shelled nuts, which were highly prized by customers and other buyers. But the production of such prized nuts was inconsistent and couldn’t be made so.
