Giveaway: Young Plantations ~ Favorite Foursome Tin

A few months ago, I told you all about Young Plantations.  They are a wonderful, family-owned business based in Florence, SC that offers premium pecan products for personal and corporate gift-giving. 

Young Plantations ships their wonderful pecan products such as pecan pies, double dipped chocolate pecans, gift baskets, etc. to over 50 countries each year.  You can order online or if you are local, you can stop in any of their 5 retail shops (2 permanent, 3 seasonal) in South Carolina. 

You can also visit Young Plantations online and request a catalog. 

I'm not sure how much baking I'll manage to get done this year, so I'm thinking I might order a few of their pecan pies to put on the dessert table this Christmas!  Of course, I'll also order some double-dipped Chocolate Pecans to put in my stocking on Christmas Eve since they are my absolute favorite! 



I am very excited to annouce that Young Plantations has kindly agreed to help celebrate my birthday by participating in my 40th Birthday Bash Giveaway! 



In honor of my birthday, Young Plantations will send one very lucky, Under the Big Oak Tree reader one FREE Favorite Foursome Tins filled with this assortment of flavors:
  • Butter Roasted & Salted Pecans
  • Double Dipped Chocolate Pecans
  • Honey Crisp Pecans
  • Praline Pecans
I've tasted 3 out of the 4 flavors and I've got to tell you, they are out-of-this-world good!  So good, you're not going to want to share!  Especially those Double Dipped Chocolate Pecans!  Oh, and the Honey Crisp Pecans!  YUM!!!!

  1. Ok, I saw they have sugar free chocolates on their site. Uh, I'm sure they are good but I so want the real chocolate ones! I was drooling when I saw chocolate covered pecans! Wait, I'm trying to lose weight. These don't have calories, right?? :-)

  2. I love Young's pecans. I keep some in my freezer all the time for baking. The gift tins look so yummy, I think they would be perfect for some of the seniors on my list who don't really need anything. Thanks for the chance to win!
