Keepin’ Austin nutty one pecan at a time

Who’s really keeping Austin nutty? A team of pecan-loving seniors are doing the heavy lifting this season. You can drop off pecans for cracking or pick up ready-to-savor pecans and other nuts at Austin’s Senior Activity Center at 2874 Shoal Crest Avenue. If you’re adding pecans to the table, now’s the time to gather your supply. Sales are open from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday at the senior center.

Checking in at the nuthouse? Rock star parking is reserved for the nuthouse, where seniors crack pecans in shells.
