Whole, USA‑grown Virginia peanuts in their shells: raw, non‑GMO, and ideal for feeding backyard wildlife or roasting and boiling for safe human consumption.

These NUTS U.S. whole in‑shell peanuts come from American Virginia peanut farms and are packaged raw and unsalted for versatile use. They’re large‑kernel peanuts, nutrient‑dense, and free from additives — convenient for wildlife feeding, bird and squirrel stations, or for roasting/boiling at home when you want a fresh, natural snack. The product is sold in a 5 lb bag for seasonal feeding or pantry storage.

How should I feed these peanuts to birds and squirrels?

Offer the peanuts in shells directly in feeders, on platforms, or scattering them safely on the ground away from roads. Many species enjoy cracking shells for the kernels, and the whole format reduces waste and helps slow consumption.

• use gravity or platform feeders designed for whole nuts
• place away from high‑traffic areas to reduce spillage
• refresh supply every few days to prevent mold in wet weather
• store unused peanuts in a cool, dry spot to keep them fresh

Can I eat these peanuts and how should I prepare them?

Yes — these peanuts are suitable for human consumption after proper cooking. Roasting or boiling improves flavor and texture and is the recommended way to prepare raw peanuts for safe eating.

• oven roast at 325°F for 20–25 minutes until golden
• boil in salted water for 20–30 minutes for a tender, savory result
• cool and crack shells before eating or use roasted kernels in recipes
• keep in shell during storage to preserve freshness longer

What makes these Virginia peanuts different from other types?

Virginia peanuts are known for their larger kernels and firm texture, which makes them popular for snacking and wildlife feeding. Their size also makes them easier for larger birds and small mammals to handle and crack open.

• large kernel size compared with runner or Spanish varieties
• firm, meaty texture ideal for roasting or baiting wildlife feeders
• grown in USA regions known for Virginia peanut production
• sold raw and unsalted so you control any seasoning or processing

How should I store these peanuts to keep them fresh?

Keep unopened bags in a cool, dry place and move opened bags to airtight containers to limit exposure to moisture and pests. Proper storage preserves flavor and reduces the risk of spoilage over time.

• airtight containers or food‑grade buckets for opened bags
• cool, dry pantry locations away from direct sunlight
• refrigerate or freeze for long‑term storage beyond a few months
• inspect before use for any signs of mold or off‑odors

Who is this for? This 5 lb bag of NUTS U.S. raw Virginia peanuts is ideal for backyard wildlife enthusiasts, birdwatchers, and homeowners who enjoy roasting their own snacks. It’s also useful for small‑scale gardeners, nature parks, and anyone who wants non‑GMO, additive‑free peanuts for feeding squirrels, birds, deer, or for culinary use after cooking. If you appreciate large, natural peanuts sourced in the USA and want flexible use — wildlife feeding today and homemade roasted snacks tomorrow — this product fits that purpose.
