The name Pinyon is inspired by the pinyon pine, a native tree of both the Mediterranean and the American Southwest. It is known for its resilient roots and flavorful pine nuts. It symbolizes our connection between the Mediterranean landscape and our Arizona home—where warmth, gathering, and good food are part of everyday life.
