Under The Pecan Tree store display

There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens – Ecclesiates 3:1

From December 2015 through March 2025, Under the Pecan Tree was a locally owned "brick and mortar" gift shop located in Dunwoody, Georgia, a northern suburb of the metropolitan Atlanta area. When it came time to renew the lease, the owner, Amanda, was just not amenable to signing a long lease.

So, while the physical store has closed, you can still shop under the pecan tree... shop on-line, on-call and on-the-go shopping at local Trunk Shows and Pop Ups.

History

Under the Pecan Tree opened in Dunwoody on December 1, 2015.  It was owned and operated by the Scoles family. 

Amanda Scoles is a native Atlantan who grew up on Stratford Road, just across Peachtree from Lenox Square.  It was at Lenox that Amanda spent summers and Christmas vacations working at various stores… and it was there where she got the itch to own her own gift shop!  Her husband Davis has been in Atlanta all but two years of his life, but brags of being Texas-born.

The brick and mortar store was a sort of modern-day general store (think the Olson's store on Little House on the Prairie... or Sam Drucker's store on Green Acres). There were products for every member of the family (from infant to grandparent) – primarily because Amanda couldn't help herself. If she saw a fabulous product that she thought her Dunwoody customers would like, and she knew it wasn't available at another store close by, she would order it. She could always squeeze a few more items in those 950 square feet!
