Since pecans are the largest single-use nut that we use in our products (they're used in 9 flavors!), we thought that it was the right time to highlight our amazing pecan supplier, Miller Pecan Company, which is based in Afton, Oklahoma.

Our “lovebird flavors,” Choco Granola, and First Date Granola, are good examples of our efforts to provide homemade granola that caters to a variety of diets. True North Granola offers both specialty-need and classic granolas to meet as many dietary needs as possible. For more information about these two varieties, and the characteristics of our classic versus specialty granolas, read on.

We’re kicking off the start of 2019 with a new website. That’s right - it’s finally live, and has some new features to make shopping for (and discovering) True North Granola even easier. To help better understand some of the key aspects, here’s a breakdown.

We’re ecstatic to announce our three new products: First Date Granola, Nuts & Flax Granola and Nutty No Grainer Mediterranean Blend.
