Celebrate the bounty of this sweet summer fruit this weekend, July 30-31, with Frecon Farms at their annual peach celebration. Enjoy a peach wine tasting and live cooking demos for grilling, chilling and pickling peaches alongside special customer appreciation day benefits. There’s even a peach smash for kids!
The peach celebration is happening at Frecon’s retail store in Boyertown, which is overflowing with all kinds of local vegetables and homegrown summer fruit, including newly picked Saturn peaches.
Frecon Farms has been growing fruit since 1944, and while they’re not certified organic, they practice Integrated Pest Management, relying on biological means and very few chemicals for taking down pests and diseases. Learn more about their growing practices here.

It is good that some farms still keep tradition alive. I am tired of seeing processed foods and fancy packages. We need to go back to the days when fruit came in a barrel.
