It’s time for the Crenshaw County Alcazar Shrine Club’s World’s Largest Peanut Boil!
In total, 34 tons of the world-famous Luverne Legumes will be put in the pots to boil, ultimately helping the shriners to accomplish a portion of the group’s three-part mission, “to change and improve lives.”
All proceeds will help fund Shriner charities like Shriners Hospitals for Children.
The event will run until Sep 5 or until peanuts are sold out. Prices are as follows: small bag $5, large bag $10, 40 pounds of green peanuts $65, 40 pounds of boiled $85.
See the Crenshaw County Alcazar Shrine Club’s World’s Largest Peanut Boil Facebook page for information. Including when fresh batches of peanuts are available and the status of availability.
