Janna Gay Tucker of Twin City and Brett Tucker of Ocilla, Georgia, met in college at the University of Georgia and found common ground through their small-town backgrounds, ties to agriculture, and strong family values. They followed careers to the Atlanta area where they lived for about nine years, although Brett stayed connected to the farm at the time by partnering with his dad in their pecan tree farming operation. After starting a family with three kids two and under, the Tuckers decided to reprioritize and move closer to home to be near family, and Janna stayed home with the kids. Brett had always encouraged her to cook, package, and sell the pecans they farmed. When they started an old house renovation, the Tuckers documented the process on a blog called “All the Fixin’s” - fixin’ up the house, fixin’ things on the farm, fixin’ dinner - All. The. Fixin’s. With more time on her hands (if you don’t count mounds of diapers, laundry, and dishes), Janna started to form ideas for the pecan business - recipes, branding, packaging, and a website. They already had a brand going with the house blog and thought it fit. “All the Fixin’s” makes you think of the south and food, so they went with it for the name of their pecan business.
The business started in November 2018 with online and wholesale sales. They started out doing gift boxes and had three flavors of pecans: spiced, roasted, and plain. The Tuckers opened their Twin City storefront in December 2020 and their Swainsboro storefront in July 2022. All the Fixin’s has grown to offer 11 different pecan products including turtles, pralines, and pecan butter, all using their family farm-grown pecans. In addition, the gift shop features other Georgia products like honey, oil, jams, candles, and other snacks. They offer grab-n-go cafe food items like sandwiches, wraps, and salads and “kitchen fixins” like casseroles, desserts, and breakfast items. Their goal is to expand and have multiple storefronts in other neighboring cities.
All the Fixin’s specializes in making and selling pecan products in-store, online, and wholesale to other retailers across the Southeast United States. They also have a grab-n-go cafe storefront where you can shop for local gifts, get coffee with friends, grab a casserole for dinner, and get breakfast or lunch. Their mission statement is “Goodness Served,” and the goal at All the Fixin’s is to serve up goodness each and every day - in their food, and in each interaction they have. They are Chamber members because they want to connect with other businesses and the community, and the Chamber is a great resource for doing that! They also serve the community by donating food to Weekend Blessings for the kids’ backpack program and bringing awareness to child hunger. The Bible verse the Tuckers point to is “He fills the hungry soul with goodness” -Psalm 107:9. They love seeing people connect and gather in their stores to shop with friends, have a cup of coffee, or enjoy lunch on the patio. Life is so fast-paced; they love seeing others savoring the moments and savoring All the Fixin’s food products at the same time!
