  • From Fruit to Nuts: Go Minnesota Wild With These Savings!

    February 19th, 2008 by markdownmom

    Literally this is the place that carries everything from fruit to nuts!  Seriously, if you want to find exceptional buys on fruits and nuts this is the place.  Great to make your own party baskets, or go healthy by adding a variety of nuts and legumes in your diet.

    Bergin Fruit & Nut Company formerly located on Kasota Avenue In the Twin Cities, now has a small  outlet store on Energy Park Drive in St. Paul, Minnesota.   The store has limited store hours: M-F 8:30-4:30pm, but worth skipping out of the office a little early to see.

    Prices generally range from $4-$20, depending on the type (e.g. almonds versus peanuts) and size of the item (e.g. package or box).  Right now there is a 40% OFF bin with a variety of grains, lentils, and goodies.   Selling both wholesale and retail, here is a listing of some of their products:

    Salted, unsalted, and honey roasted nuts
    almonds
    peanuts
    cashews
    pistachio
    macademia nuts

    Salted and unsalted Seeds
    pumpkin
    sunflower
    pepitas

    Natural peanut or almond butter

    Dried fruits

    cranberries
    pineapple
    apples
    bananas
    apricots
    papaya
    figs

    Lentils
    pinto beans
    green split peas

    Grains
    oatmeal
    cereal/granola

    Chocolate covered pretzels and yogurt covered raisins

    Bergin also offers unique blends such as "Cranberry Honey Nut Mix," which includes peanuts, walnuts, cashews, raisins, and cranberries, and "Minnesota Mix," which includes peanuts, sesame stix, sesame seeds, and yellow and purple M&Ms to celebrate the Minnesota Vikings. 

    Speaking to the ladies who work at Bergin, MDM found that the company is especially busy during Christmas and in fact the company  taking names and emails for their Holiday Mailing List now—so stop in and sign up!
