Philanthropy

The Rochester area Delta Gammas are famous for their Pecans!

Who thought that the 300 pounds we started with 35 years ago would continue to grow into the huge number we sell today? Or that our donations to Rochester community agencies and DG Foundation tally close to $175,000!  

ALL PROFITS RAISED BENEFIT SIGHT CONSERVATION AND AID TO THE BLIND.

Not bad for a group of dedicated DGs who, through the bonds of friendship, cooperation and dedicated spirit, endeavor to make their community a little bit better each and every day.  

Those delicious pecans are ripening on the trees while you are reading this.  Soon they will be ready for picking, then processed with lightning speed and shipped to our front door.  How many you ask?  Over two tons and they'll be waiting for you to buy and/or sell them. 

We do not sell pecans that have been sitting on the shelves for a long time at the grocery store or the wholesale club.  These are freshly harvested, golden brown, mammoth, shelled halves, which are sent to us.  We also have a supply of medium, chopped pieces, which are great for baking.

Join in.  If you can't sell, and none of us thought we could when we started this, then please consider buying some.  We'll be happy to take your order and notify you when they arrive (usually late October).

Please give contact Stacy Poulios at StacyP52@aol.com for more information about the sale.
