Peaches
We have more than a dozen varieties, all freestone, ripening continuously from around mid-July through Labor Day. Exact dates and fruit availability are largely dependent on temperature, rain and tree load - aka "Mother Nature". Call us to find out how this season's crop of peaches is shaping up.
Plan to spend some time looking for that perfectly ripe peach; it's kind of like a treasure hunt, some days. Remember, beauty is only skin deep, just wait until you taste one of our tree ripened peaches!
A couple of hints, for your comfort when picking peaches....lightweight long sleeves, shoes and a gentle touch. When you arrive, ask one of our staff on how to best choose and pick a ripe peach.
You can look forward to some new varieties in upcoming years; we've planted a number of new peach trees.
