The 65th Annual San Saba County Pecan Show will be held December 14th & 15th on the ground floor of the Courthouse. Samples will be processed Monday, December 14th, beginning at 1:00 p.m. in the Extension Office. Scott Anderson, CEA Brown County, will judge our show Tuesday morning, December 15th.
A sample requires 40 pecans per Variety. Ten pecans from each sample Variety will be weighed, shelled and weighed for yield. If you do not know your Variety, bring them. We will identify them for you. We can always use help Monday afternoon for the process ing. Our Bend produces have always been faithful to come shell and have a Great time doing so. They would appreciate your help.
Please have your entries in the Extension Office on or before Thursday, December 10th. This will allow entries to be plated on Sunday afternoon, December 13th, and ready to be processed Monday after noon. Having entries early speeds up the processing. San Saba County has enjoyed success on the Regional and State levels. Participation in promoting the Pecan Capital of the World is helpful to the local industry.
