Peaches

It’s one of our most favorite times of the year—our trees are full of Oregold® Peaches! They’re proudly grown here in Southern Oregon where sun-filled days and comfortable nights provide a perfect environment for them to become plump and juicy. Each of our peaches is handpicked at its peak and carefully shipped, ensuring that you receive the freshest peaches around. They shine in cobblers and make incredible jams, but honestly, they’re best enjoyed out of hand, bite by juicy and delicious bite. Learn more about this flavorful summer fruit in our All-Encompassing Guide to Peaches article.

NOW HAPPENING IN THE ORCHARDS

Harvest time is here! In late July, we begin picking our Oregold® Peaches. We grow five different varieties which ripen in stages, so the crews will be busy most of August. In the meantime, our orchard team is still busy irrigating and fertilizing. By the time the pickers are through with peaches, it will be time for them to start picking our incredible Royal Riviera® Pears.
