In celebration of National Candy Month, this sweet episode of Big Blend Radio's "Peanut Patch" Podcast with Donna George dives into the nostalgic charm of The Peanut Patch and explores how candy-making continues to evolve in creative and surprising ways.

Learn how freeze-dried candy is not only a great option for outdoor adventures but also a lighter, softer treat for movie nights and folks with dental concerns. You'll also discover how Medjool dates—known as “Nature’s Candy”—make a naturally sweet, sugar-free alternative. The Peanut Patch even carries a variety of sugar-free candies, making sure there’s something for everyone.

Located in Yuma, Arizona, The Peanut Patch - open October-April - is an iconic Southwest destination known for farm-fresh peanuts, homemade peanut brittle, and irresistible treats. From traditional favorites to innovative candy-making techniques shaping the future, this family-run business continues to delight generations of sweet-toothed travelers, especially those hitting the road in search of nostalgic, local flavor.
