The World's Largest Pecan won't be rolling off the lawn any too soon from the James Pecan Farm in the small town of Brunswick, Missouri. The pecan sits in front of the Nut Hut roadside stand weighing 12,000 pounds and is 7 feet by 12 feet in size! The concrete replica was built in 1982 representing the patented Starking Hardy Giant pecan, a tasty strain discovered by George James on the property in 1947.

Visit the farm of over 10,000 pecan trees and witness the harvesting, cleaning and processing of candies, butters, jams and jellies. Visit the one and only Pecan Museum and see how pecans were harvested, cracked on the farm's first cracker and many other items.
