Comanche Indians first used the 4,200 acres of land that is now the Pecan Plantation. Due to the unusual configuration of the Brazos River virtually encircling the peninsula of land, the property has long been a distinctive landmark just south of Granbury, Texas. The property was known as the De Cordova Bend, named for Jacob De Cordova, an early Texas pioneer who explored and surveyed it in the 18

50s. Virtually abandoned for about 50 years following the exodus of the American Indians from the area, the property was finally settled by a communal group of families led to the site by John B. The community was known as Kristenstad, but by 1938 the settlement had failed and was abandoned. Leonard, a prominent Fort Worth businessman, purchased the property and renamed it Leonard Bend. By 1956 the Leonard Bend Pecan Farm had 3,300 acres of orchard on the peninsula. The Brazos River Authority in 1966 started building the De Cordova Dam. The opening of Lake Granbury in 1969 completely changed the dynamics of the area. The Leonard family started development of the pecan farm as a residential community in the late 1960s. The country club, golf course, airport and several recreational areas and parks were opened in 1971, and the Pecan Plantation Owners Association (PPOA) was formed in 1972 by the developers.

Meet Breezy, Pecan Plantation’s Pet of the Week!

Kim and Don McDonald adopted Breezy about four years ago after saying goodbye to their elderly pets, and they feel incredibly lucky to have added her to their family. Breezy is a precious companion who absolutely loves golf cart rides around Pecan, especially when the trip includes a visit to Pecan’s First National Bank. Breezy regularly joins Kim and Don for plane rides to grab lunch, and she has even made three trips to Sedona.

Meet Buddy, Pecan Plantation’s Pet of the Week!

Buddy is about 2 years old, although his exact age is a bit of a mystery because he came from a shelter. What isn’t a mystery is how Buddy feels about his new life. He is very happy in his new home and has settled right in with his family. And judging by that handsome face and colorful tie, Buddy seems pretty pleased with how things have worked out! Buddy belongs to Larry and Debbie Jansen.
