What is The Pecan Grower Magazine and how can I advertise in it?
Updated
The Pecan Grower is the Georgia Pecan Growers Association's industry publication, and the association's website lists a "2027 Media Kit" with an "Advertise today in The Pecan Grower Magazine" entry point. If you want to place an ad, start with that media kit, since it is the resource the site points to for advertising details. The site does not publish ad rates, sizes, or deadlines on the page itself, so those specifics have to come from the kit or from the association directly.
What the magazine is
The Pecan Grower is tied to GPGA, the Georgia Pecan Growers Association, a group based in Tifton, Georgia. The association describes pecans as the only native American tree nut and notes that by the 1800s pecans were at the heart of the North American industry — the kind of industry context a grower-focused magazine would cover.
The site's navigation includes a dedicated MAGAZINE section alongside JOIN GPGA, PECANS, INDUSTRY, RECIPES, MERCHANDISE, EVENTS, and CONTACT US, which confirms the magazine is a standing part of the association's offerings rather than a one-off item.
How to advertise
The homepage surfaces advertising in a single line: "2027 Media Kit — Advertise today in The Pecan Grower Magazine." That tells you two things:
- The current advertising cycle referenced on the site is for 2027.
- The media kit is the intended first step, not a direct booking form.
A practical sequence:
- Open the MAGAZINE section of georgiapecan.org (or follow the media kit link from the homepage).
- Download or open the 2027 Media Kit to find the specifications the association provides — placement options, formats, and any pricing or deadline information it includes.
- If the kit leaves questions open, contact GPGA directly using the details below.
What the site does and does not tell you
| Item | Available on the site page? |
|---|---|
| Existence of a 2027 Media Kit | Yes |
| "Advertise today" entry point | Yes |
| Ad rates, sizes, deadlines | Not shown on the page |
| Magazine section in navigation | Yes |
| Contact details for follow-up | Yes |
The page shows a "subscribe" signal in its keyword set, but no pricing links or payment platforms, so do not assume advertising can be booked or paid for online. Treat the media kit and direct contact as the route.
Contacting GPGA
If the media kit does not answer your question, the association lists:

- Phone: 229-382-2187
- Fax: 404-393-9298

The same page also carries a newsletter sign-up (name and email, with required fields marked) if you want association news and event updates while you sort out advertising.
Related items worth knowing
The homepage also lists a 2027 GPGA Conference with registration open, and a 2027 Membership Packet for renewing or joining. If you are advertising to reach growers, membership and conference audiences overlap with the magazine's readership, so it may be worth asking GPGA about combined or event-related placements when you make contact.
