  • Joy, we still have a supply of Pumpkin Spice on our Amazon store! We hope you’ll find another variety you love just as much year-round.

  • Missing pumpkin granola terribly! My favorite.
    also WEGMAN’S in Columbia, Md is out of almost all flavors. Never seem to have enough.
    Love almond butter also.
