Through the Years
The Orchard is Planted
The pecan orchard is planted alongside an existing stand of native pecan trees, just outside Bixby, OK in the community of Leonard. Pecan varieties planted include Schley, Moore, Success, Squirrel's Delight, Halbert, Stuart, Texas 60, and others.
A New Chapter Begins
Joe and Thelma Frazier purchase the pecan orchard and begin their journey in the pecan business. Joe, a professional baseball player, spends his off-seasons caring for the trees and teaching his son Joe Jr about the pecan business.
Growing the Passion
Joe Jr, a Tulsa Fireman and Fire Captain from 1973-2003, continues managing and thinning the orchard, planting new trees where possible, and custom harvesting native groves in the area.
The Next Generation
Joe's son Hunter continues to carry on the family tradition today, managing the orchard and expanding the business to include retail and wholesale sales of farm-fresh improved and native pecans.
