About Us
We purchased our 1898 home and 10 acres in 2006. After restoring the home, we decided to plant four varieties of organic peaches. The property was once part of one of the largest peach orchards in the valley. It was ideal for planting because it had not had peaches on the land for over 30 years and was previously planted in nitrogen rich alfalfa. In 2013, we purchased the joining 10 acres and planted another three varieties. All 20 acres are currently producing and are Certified Organic. We take great pride in offering truly tree ripened peaches. We test the peaches for high sugar content and pick at optimum ripeness. The high sugar content acts as a "preservative" so the peaches hold up nicely when stored at the proper temperature. ?
