Where it all began...

Gurley's Foods was built in 1953 by Andy Goedert in the small rural town of Willmar, Minnesota. He built the bakery to produce cookies for the Archway Cookie Company. By 1964, Andy, knowing that he would need to diversify, found a small, highly reputable nut roasting company in St. Paul called "Gurley's". He bought the company and started producing Gurley's nut products there and Gurley's cookies in Willmar. In 1966, Archway, just as Andy had predicted, built their own bakeries. If it weren't for his instincts, we wouldn't be here today.

Benefits of Nuts

Dear Gurley's Out and about with my kids over the Columbus Day weekend. we had pulled over at a convenience store. Each of my daughters asked for snacks as I was filling up my car. When they got back in, my youngest had bought a bag of Gurley's Mixed Nuts. I had a few before I accidentally spilled the bag, but what I had was good enough to go buy 2 more packages.Thanks! .

Dear Gurley's Foods, My wife and I pulled into a Truck Stop yesterday in Decatur, Texas and bought some of your "Hot and Spicy Peanuts". Now, I like Hot Peanuts, butGurley's Mountain Country Spicy Peanuts are Hands-Down, no doubt, no BS, "The Best I have ever eaten"!Do you ever ship Retail, or is there a Distributor in this area where I could get somemore? Looking forward to your reply...

Dear Gurley's, I don't know how you do it, but I have never tasted Cashews as good as yours! They are awesome!! When we buy cashews we buy the "Jumbo Cashews". We used  to buy generic cashews from our local convenience store, but no more! I threw out what was left over to the critters in our backyard. They had zero flavor compared to yours.  Keep up the good work! Thank you.

Separate the mix into small plastic bags and you’re ready to go!
2. Perfect Pate! After soaking walnuts in water for 6-8 hours, chop them up in a food processor along with some parsley, onion, garlic, lemon juice and olive oil for a tasty spread to top whole-wheat crackers or flat-bread.
3. Wrap Them Up! Combine chopped almonds with tomato, bell pepper, onion, chopped lettuce and cilantro then lightly toss in a vinaigrette dressing. Warm a wheat tortilla and fill with the ingredients. Add some sliced avocado and you’ve got yourself a delicious, healthy lunch!

Pecans

Long before the arrival of the Europeans to the New World,  Pecans PECANS [pih-KAHNS; pih-KANS; PEE-kans] were an important food in the diet of the Indian tribes of the central and southern regions of the United States. Two famous people partial to pecans were George Washington, who frequently carried them in his pockets, and Thomas Jefferson, who dedicated part of his time to their cultivation.
