Have you ever enjoyed a sunny summer afternoon shelling peanuts at a ballgame? What about those salted cocktail peanuts you find at the grocery store? Maybe your tastes run more refined and you prefer pre-shelled gourmet peanuts?

As it turns out, if you come across cocktail or in-shell peanut products pretty much anywhere in the country, they likely were grown in North Carolina. NC State University scientists are doing their part to grow the industry, educate consumers and support our farmers.
